Wiki Page: How to create item sets (and optionally a keyin script) for Status Viz

How to create item sets for Status Viz:

First off is that you have to create an “i-model for review” (i.e. adds Equipment_Install property) which leads to a bigger i-model.  The status viz keyin binds to this additional metadata (textual version of an ECQuery), i.e.

                SELECT Equipment_Part WHERE Equipment_Install=""Delivered OnSite"

You can also generate an item set as keyin script:

1.       Add publishforreview option in MC (as noted above).

2.       Disable create item sets

a.       C:\ConstructSimData\Projects\BGR\VPMData\BGR\Data\System\ImportExtendedAttributesDef.xml

b.      <Options createStatusItemSets="false" maxCommitInstances="2500" />

3.       This creates C:\ConstructSimData\Projects\BGR\VPMData\BGR\Data\StatusViz\StatusItemSetKeyIn.txt 

Open i-model, select Utilities\Keyin and enter:

@C:\ConstructSimData\Projects\BGR\VPMData\BGR\Data\StatusViz\StatusItemSetKeyIn.txt

The i-model creation code only depends on ProductModelStatusMaster.xml and ProductModelStatus.mdb in the VPM.
