Integrate Engineering Changes SBN Konferansen 2014 Sandefjord, October 21-22 1
In This Session You will get a detailed look into a continuous change process with SAP PLM 7 Based upon a business example, different cross-departmental changes are done with SAP PLM 7 capabilities Explore steps like initiating the change request, approval process as well as the completion of changes done in a CAD authoring system using the SAP PLM CAD integration The demonstration is built up on the DSC Engineering Control Center 5.0 as a case study of CIDEON Software to describe how an integration to SAP could work on this platform. The case study does not represent functions/features or processes of the SAP Engineering Control Center which is based on the DSC ECTR, too. 3

What We ll Cover Agenda Engineering Change Record Quick Recap Overview of demonstrated Business Scenario Wrap Up Name/Date 10
Change Process A project manager identifies quality issues at a particular component (gear motor) using PLM Analytics (Visual Enterprise, BCV) He creates an Engineering Change Record with a change request for the exchange of the problematic component (gear module) using SAP PLM 7 Engineering Change Record A product manager clarifies the technical feasibility on item level, initiates particular steps to be made, and releases the change request 11
Change Process (cont.) The changes (exchange of old gear module with new one) are conducted by the engineering department in CAD using SAP PLM CAD Integration The Project Manager verifies and releases the changes done by the engineer using SAP Visual Enterprise and PDF Respective changes that apply to Manufacturing Bill of Material are done by the Manufacturing Engineer using SAP PLM 7 Product Structure Synchronization (PSS) Finally, the Product Manager closes the Engineering Change Record 12
Change Process (cont.) Project- Manager Product- Manager Engineer Manufacturing- Engineer Identification of problem and request of changes Clarification of techn. feasibility and identification of items Implementation of changes Check and release Reconcilation of Engineering BOM Closed 13
