Yes. Some further questions. How are association and devices related? I see
devices_id in both so is one a Foreign Key to the other? I ask because in
your function you relate them via association.mon_fluid=devices.device_number
as well as
p_id.association.monitoring_fluid = p_id.devices.fluid_id
or p_id.association.monitoring_fluid = p_id.devices.pipe_id
I am not quite sure I understand monitoring_fluid=pipe_id.
