4.Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) Scenario: 4.1.Definition • 4.1.DEF: Product Life Cycle Management (PLM) • Manages products and projects lifecycle from planning to phase out (Kivonás) • It is fully integrated with CRM and SCM, but it has limited activity when product/project is on peak, and it is very active before- and after that • It consists the following components: • 4.1.1.Integration tools • 4.1.1.1.Content objects handled (Import/export):CAD systems, GIS systems, Office systems, Product Classification systems • 4.1.1.2.Tools: • ALT:Remote function call (RFC) of Business Application programming Interface (BAPI) • ALT:Java Connector • 4.1.1.3.GUI: • ALT:Without SAP GUI: uses RFC-based dialog templates • ALT:With SAP GUI • 4.1.2.Document management tools • 4.1.2.1.Content objects handled:Paper-based documents, Folders of paper-based documents, Electronic documents • 4.1.2.2.DEF:Document Info Record(Dokumentum Törzslap): • Document fuction description • Secure Storage Area (Biztonságos Irattár) access • Versioning (Verziózás) • Status={Planned, Active, Archivated, Deleteable} • Classification • Bidirectional Links with SAP ECC parts: What will use it? • Bidirectional Links with ArchiveLink interface: How to import/export? • 4.1.2.3.GUI: • 4.1.2.3.1.Easy Document Management System (DMS) interface:Simplified tool without the need to learn SAP GUI • 4.1.2.3.2.EAI Viewer:View CAD plans even in animated form • 4.1.2.3.3.MS Office:View office documents • 4.1.2.3.4.WorkFlow:Organize documents into process flows
4.PLM Scenario: 4.1.Definition: 4.1.3.Product Structure Browser • 4.1.3.DEF:Product StructureBrowser (Termék Struktúra Nézegető) • 4.1.3.1.Content object handled: • Material masters • BOM • Routings • Documents • 4.1.3.2.Tools • 4.1.3.2.1.Product/object classification • Define Attributes/Characteristics of products/objects: Data fields with given name, type, range • Define Class Hierarchy: Attribute/Characteristics are assigned for each class • Objects are assigned to class: • Their Attribute/Characteristics values are determined • A material and its document can go in separate classes • 4.1.3.2.2.Variant Configuration for Configurable materials: • Define Attributes/Characteristics of configurablematerial: Data fields with given name, type, range • Assign characteristic values to variants of configurable material • General BOM and Super routing will contain all possible components/work steps for all versions • Dependencies defined in BOM/Routing by characteristic valu-escreating Dynamic BOM/Routing of product versions • Different type of BOMs can be defined: • Production Dynamic BOM: Normal production • Order BOM: specific variant assigned to 1 order • 4.1.3.3.General Structure of GUI: • FRM:Left:Product hierarchy • FRM:Right:Component detail
4.PLM Scenario: 4.1.Definition: 4.1.4.ECM • 4.1.4.Engineering Change&Configuration Management • 4.1.4.1.Content objects handled:Material master, BOM, Routing, Documents • 4.1.4.2.Tools • 4.1.4.2.1.Engineering Change Management (ECM): • Enables to store historic steps of content object changes • Grouped into Change groups described by Change Master Record: • Header • Change number ID • Reason • Validity dates • Status • Items: Object management records: • References of changed objects or extra documents • Their change can be effected by: • Validity dates • Validity conditions • Propagates through whole LO process • 4.1.4.2.2.Engineering Configuration Management: • Configuration Folder: Enables to store contents assigned to different replicates of product structure • Configuration folders are assigned to product lifecycle phases • For different purposes: engineering/production • 4.1.4.3.GUI • 4.1.4.3.1.Engineering Workbench (EWB) • Can process BOMs and Routings simultaneously in Worklists • Multi user environment: does not lock all the BOMs/Routings, just that part of hierarchy, which is maintained • 4.1.4.3.2.Releasing changes has 2 alternative ways: • ALT: By 1 user in 1 step: Release Change Master Record • ALT: By multiple user in more steps with status change (allocates responsibility and rights): • Engineering Change Record (ECR) • Engineering Change Order (ECO)
