Q4_How to manage software material and BOM in SAP_High-tech Industry PLM Implementation Issues

Hello,
We are implementing SAP PLM for a high-tech company which designs and manufactures mobile phones (ODM). Since we are new in PLM consulting and we are facing with some implementation difficulties, we are looking for some solutions here.
Question 4: How to manage software material and BOM in SAP?
Currently, software are not managed as material in the BOM.  How to manage software material in PLM, can anyone help us with some suggestions.
Question 5: PADS integration with PLM.
Currently, customer is using Pro/E and PADS to design their product. SAP has already provided standard interface for Pro/E integration. But for PADS, there is no such interface. Because of the specialization of electrical components managed in PADS, different from structural parts in Pro/E, how to transfer them between PLM system and manage them in the PLM system has become an difficulty. We will appreciate a lot if anyone can share us with some successful solutions.

Hi,
software, typically a released version of software, is typically managed as a normal material master, and a related document with the code as a package (e.g. ZIP), if really needed.
Software in development is managed typically with a dedicated Software Configuration Management tool like Rational ClearCase, Subversion, MKS Integrity, ....

  • Material and BOM

    hi,experts,
       here is my problem , sometimes ,the standard BOM has been changed ,for example ,add a new material to the BOM,but the BOM of some production order hasn't  been changed ,so ,how to find out the production orders which include the new material ?
    thanks
    Jarod

    Dear,
    If you use the ECM- Engineering change management then it is possible to track the changes in BOm and Production order with OCM will given the component history.
    Other wise you have to check in Production order Component over view you will get details of component.
    Or you can check in USE table RESB with RSNUM of AUFK-AUFNR
    or From CAUFV table u can get the material Number and the Plant for the coresponding PO number. and u can pass these Mat.no, Plant and BOM usage as '1'.
    or go to these FMs:
    1. CO_DB_HEADER_READ
    2. CO_SF_AFPO_READ
    Hope this will helpful.

  • Services managed by material and service master.

    Hi,
    why managing services by <b>material master</b> and
    why by <b>service master</b>?
    Best regards

    Hi
    use of service master
    The service master record counts as part of the master data within External Services Management and serves as a source of data for you to draw upon when creating service specifications. This enables you to save time and reduces the frequency of errors, since you need only enter the complete service descriptions in the service master record once.

    generaly when service is specific and one line only we go for  material master

  • Quotes for "Managing Software Engineerin​g" and "Advanced Architectu​res" course material?

    I tried sending an e-mail through NI.com and never got a response, so I thought I'd try the forums.
    I'm interested in purchasing the course materials for "Managing Software Engineering" and "Advanced Architectures" as part of my CLA prep. There aren't any courses being taught in my area, and nothing seems to be scheduled for an online course. I couldn't find the information searching through the course pages on NI.com.
    Does anyone know how much it would cost to get just the course material for self-teaching?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You can purchase the course kits.
    Here is a link.
    http://sine.ni.com/tacs/app/fp/p/ap/ov/lang/en/ol/​en/oc/us/pg/1/sn/n5:selfpaced/
    You can go to each link, and within the links there is a link to add the product to the basket, so to speak.
    Here is some more FYI, sometimes these links can be a bit hard to find.
    Here is a link for the online courses.   http://sine.ni.com/tacs/app/fp/p/ap/ov/lang/en/ol/​en/oc/us/pg/1/sn/n5nline/
    Inside each link you can see the schedule for that course.
    Also, at this link you can look over a schedule of courses for your area and online, it shows them all on one list.   http://www.ni.com/training/
    Under the section "Build your knowledge with training", there is a link "find a course near you".   On my PC it defaults to my area.

  • Confusion on Application Manager Software

    Hello,
    I have a big confusion about the meaning of an Application Manager Software (AMS) and a J2ME implementation (CDC or CLDC, including the virtual machines). Would you please help me to find the answer?
    It says that an AMS controls the entire lifecycle of a J2ME application, from its installing, invoking to stopping and uninstalling step. Then, where is the place of the CLDC or MIDP implementation? it's included in the AMS?
    Is Intent Midlet Manager or Websphere Everyplace Micro Environment (IBM) a AMS or only an J2ME implementation, in this context?
    Because applications can be installed and invoked by Intent Midlet Manager, but it's an AMS. But it also contains the JVM, so it's an implementation? ...
    Thanks in advance for helping me get out of this mess.. :-I

  • My Extensis suitcase 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and CS software

    my Extensis suitcaseX 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and my existing CS design software?

    If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.

  • Project/Task Management Software for iMac, iPad and iPhone

    Hi,
    I work at a Espresso Bars company in Sydney and we have a small but busy Design & Marketing department.  We're looking for the best, yet simplest software so we can manage all the marketing and design projects.
    I've seen a few good Online Management Software but they are quite expensive ($25+ per month per user).  The good thing about those systems is that you can access it from anywhere and people can collaborate, ask questions about a project, give feedback about a design, enter a new task or tick as completed, etc... And you can use it on an iMac, an iPad and an iPhone.
    I came across Projector for iMac and iPad, but it is not online, if you want to share the project from iMac to iPad you have to conect your iPad to your computer and sync it.  It also works by projects, so there is no way for you to see in a single screen all the projects you're currently working on and the process of them.  So, although it being very user friendly and excellent UI, not sure if it is what we want.
    I wanted to ask you if you know about another Project/Task Management Software that we can use on an iMac, iPad and perhaps and iPhone as well.  Something that you either buy the app once or if you have to pay a monthly fee it needs to be very low.  If it is online it would be much better! but everything would work I reckon.
    User friendly and good UI software are preferred.
    Thank you so much for your help!
    Cheers

  • System management software for LV apps on cRIO and Windows

    Hello All,
    Were I work there is a LabVIEW based project that is a distributed system. This system has a main application that can run on Linux, Windows, or cRIO targets. The main application loads "plugins" depending on what platform it is on to do platform specific things. For example, one plugin uses a DLL interface to communicate with OPC servers. Another plugin measures voltages and currents on cards in the cRIO chassis.
    The system occasionally needs updates and the sites where it runs are remote. The current solution is to send a technician who installs a full upgrade. We want to move to a rolling upgrade that is automated.
    We can certainly roll our own solution, but before we do that we want to investigate existing solutions.
    I believe such systems are under the buzzwords System Management Software and WSUS the windows update solution is one of these.
    Is there a System Management Software package that would deploy to cRIOs and Windows machines? (We have the Linux one solved already, although we might redo it if there is something really slick out there.)
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    For cRIO's you might want to have a look at the Real-Time Target System Replication.
