IWS has three main work areas accessible via the Solution, WorkSheet, and Settings tabs.

Solution Tab Toolbar

In the Solution tab, you can create, save, publish, run, and monitor a solution as well as access the XPanels module for the advanced panel extension features.

The following table lists the Solution toolbar options.

Toolbar Option

Description

Create New Solution

Creates a brand new solution.

Open Solution

Opens an existing solution.

Close Solution

Closes the current solution. If you have made any changes, you will receive a warning that unsaved changes will be lost and you will have the option of saving before closing.

Save Solution

Saves the current solution.
Saves only the mapping between the objects. If any object properties are changed, Save Solution does not take those changes into account and you must click Save All Files under the Worksheet tab.

Add to Favorites

Marks current solution as a favorite. If you click Open Solution and click Favorites, this solution (as well as any others you have marked as Favorite) will be displayed on the right. This option allows you quick access to the most frequently used solutions.

Publish

Publishes the solution to your Eagle environment.

Run

Publishes the solution and runs it (you will be prompted to select a data file to be processed), displaying the result in the Monitoring Tool. Use this feature when testing your solution.

Export

Saves the solution to your local drive. You will be prompted to select a path. The solution will be saved as a .zip file.

Import

Loads the solution to your local drive. This allows you to move a solution created in one environment (and exported) to another environment and then access the solution with IWS.

Print Solution

Prints out the solution diagram. Currently, this prints only a high level diagram.

Open XPanel

Allows you to manage panel extensions. This is an advanced feature used when panel extensions are required.

Show RTR Preview

Allows you to view the Run Task Request (RTR) message for the current workflow.

Open Monitoring

Opens the Monitoring Tool in a separate window. This tool filters on the currently open solution and displays processes that ran only for this solution. The Monitoring tool is read-only, you can view which processes have and have not run, but you cannot run or rerun processes from this tool.

Submit Idea

Opens the Aha! window. Aha! is a third party tool used by Eagle to capture your ideas on how to improve IWS.

WorkSheet Tab Toolbar

In the WorkSheet tab, you can manage and validate the worksheet and save all files in the solution.
The following table lists the WorkSheet toolbar options.

 Toolbar Option

Pin/Unpin

Settings Tab Toolbar

In the Settings tab, you can manage solution and workflow settings.


The following table lists the Settings toolbar options.

Toolbar Options

Description

Use Common EagleML XSD

If this option is disabled:

  • XSD from your Eagle environment will be used. XSD contains the definition of EagleML types and is used during mapping in IWS.
  • XSD matches exactly what is in your environment.
  • XSD addresses issues if you have security policies that do not allow a call within an application back out to an external site.

    If this option is enabled:
  •  XSD from the IWS product site will be used.
  • XSD will always be the latest published XSD and may be more current than what you are actually using.

    On the first initialization, IWS will read the w_use_common_eagleml_xsd parameter from the w_config.inc file to determine the initial setting of the Use Common XSD option.
    The w_config.inc file is located on the server under the tpedynamicmsgcentereagle_ml-2-0_cm folder. This is a one time action during initialization.
    If you change this parameter in the IWS user interface, your change will be saved locally, but the value in the server's w_config.inc file will not be updated.

Workflow Settings

Allows you to set TSR Name prefix, ACK Name Prefix, Custom TSR Location, Custom ACK Location, TSR Name Case, TSR Name Pattern, Emails for Notifications, and whether to send notifications (always/never/on failure). Used in conjunction with the Build Workflow Tree option.

Build Workflow Tree

Used only in conjunction with the Workflow Settings option. Click to check this option prior to clicking the Workflow Settings option.

Refresh Solution Cache

Clears solution cache. Useful to troubleshoot interface performance.
