SAP RE - CAD Integration

Hello
We are going to integrate SAP Flexible RE Management module with CAD. Can anybody share their knowledge if they have done this before?
Any relevant documentation will be more than helpful
Thanks
Rakesh

There is an SAP partner called Korasoft who have developed a solution that provides integration between Autodesk cad drawings for for floor plans and RE-FX. This solution integrates the data in the drawings to the data in RE-FX. Eg. poly lines in the drawing are associated with pooled spaces in RE-FX and the drawing determines the measurements. This product can also be tailored to create and maintain contracts and spaces associated with the contracts for billing.

SAP connector for CAD Integration with Unigraphics (NX)

Hi Experts,
Could you please guide me on where can I download CAD Integration connector for Unigraphics (NX).
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Neil

Thank you very much for the useful link Martin. Anyway, there are some things that I cannot find for NX Unigraphics integration:
In the wiki you can find
You can download the CAD-Integration-Software from http://service.sap.com/swdc and then goto
Installations and Upgrades > Supplementary Components for Cross Industry Solutions > Life-Cycle Data Management > SAP PLM Integrations > select the desired integration
But that path does not exist in SAP download software page.
Also, in the availability matrix I can find integration with several systems (catia, solid edge, autocad...) but not unigraphics.
Could you please provide some more information on the topic?
Thanks a lot.

SAP CAD Integration

Hi
Can anybody tell me how to integrate SAP And AutoCAD.
what I require is , I can get the design parameters from SAP . With these Design parameters, I need an Auto CAD Drawing Directly.
Regards,
Shrini

Hi,
In fact in the latest SAP ERP versions (4.7 and upward), the CAD integration is done using a single transaction called CAD-Desktop in R/3.
This interface gives an overview of all the files used, linked to a specified BOM for example.
But the actual link with the CAD system is specific to each CAD system, and the possibilities depend directly on the interface you have.
I used the AutoCAD interface 3 years ago, and it was quite poor ... what you need to do is to check the precise list of functionnalities offered by the developper of the interface.
What you see end read on the SAP side is just the maximum you can have !

CAD integration with sap

could any CAD integration experts give me some integration capability documents? i'm new to this area, just want to know the integration points between the cad and sap...for example: I've read some material, it saids that when the CAD design is near to complete, the material used in CAD will be transferred to SAPu2026
The question is: how the CAD material is integrated with SAP material master data? is this two different set of material master data? thanks in advance!

Hi,
It is not required to use interface only when the design is completed in CAD..these interfaces are bulit in such a way it will support complete CAD document life cycle ...

Questions on Cad Integration- Solid Edge and Solid Works

Hello All,
I had the following questions related to CAD Integration:
1. I have my CAD files saved in working directory. I create DIR for them from CDESK (Cad View - Create Document) and want to rename the files as Document Number_Document Description. How can I achieve the same. Again, I want to do the same from CDESK (CAD VIEW)
2. On Solid Edge CAD integration, I have noticed sometimes when I register the DLL's the 'User/System Preferences from SAP-PLM' on Solid Edge side does not pop up. Can someone tell me what might be the reason and how to fix it. Also if I already registered the DLL's and want to clean them (remove them), so that to try to register DLL's again, where can I go to remove them from Windows registery file
3. In Solis Edge is it necessary to check in and check out the SEC application (representing .cfg ) in SEA document type. I have noticed if I have the .cfg in my working directory and I check in SEA without .cfg and if some other person checks out the SEA, the .cfg gets created for him on the fly in his working directory.
Thanks in advance,
Sachin

Hello Sachin,
1. please have a look at and implement note 645365 - "CDESK: Attaching Solid Edge .cfg file when creating doc.".
2. If you registered the DLL's once and you want to update them, you only have to copy and replace the old ones with the new ones. You do not have to un-register the old ones.
The problem with the disappearing Menu-Items or symbols can only be solved by restoring the SolidEdge-Registry-Path...
3. You can only checkout the CFG-Files if you use the CAD-Desktop.
You have to add the WSAPPL SEC (*.cfg) to the applications in the CDESK_CUS.
(CHECKIN, CHECKOUT and COPY)
Stefan.

KPRO for CAD Integration

Hello All.
Just wanted to cross check this from you. We have CAD Integrated with SAP.
1. We have Dev Box, Q Box and P Box. I would need a KPRO on 3 different boxes. Am I correct ? Also do I have to change setting in SPRO in Dev, Q, and P to point to the respective correct Box - how do I do this.
2. Also in Q-Box we have 2 different clients EQ50 and EQ100. Am I correct to say we will use the same EQ box and Partition it for EQ50 and EQ100, so that when I work in EQ50 the files can be saved in Partition in KPRO for EQ50 and when I work in EQ100, the files can be saved in different Partition. How to make this partition in KPRO and also how do I change SPRO config for KPRO for EQ50 and EQ100, to point to correct partition.
Thanks,

CAD Integration

Hi, hopefully the experts will be able to give me some info regarding cad integration:
I am trying to inegrate SolidWorks with SAP, I am at a point where I try to save the EBOM to SAP, the interface tries to save to SAP but it generates an error(error while checking in...) as it tries to check-in the files into the content server as the files is still active/open in solidworks. What is the correct procedure to save the drawings to SAP through the cad inegration functionality? The SAP content server does not want to check-in files if it is still open in the application?

Hi,
I have worked in AutoCAD(2D) integration and Pro/E(3D) Integration. I dont know about Solid works.
But the functionalities of all the integration softwares are mostly same.
1) To save the Assembly files and part files, you need to create two document types. Hope u have done all these configurations.
Once you are ready with all ur settings.
Goto CAD Desktop select the part file and create the document by selecting the proper Document type, then select the Assembly file and create the document by selecting the proper document type.
Then Check-in the file from CAD Desktop by selecting the appropriate content repository.
like that the Materials and BOMs can also be created directly from CAD Desktop.
functionality wise i can help you but not technical wise as im not aware of solid works.
Sorry i dont have any training materials for Solid works.
Regards,
MRK.

Tips to work with heavy SE/SW assemblies -CAD Integration

Hello All,
I am associated with SAP-Cad Integration for Solid Edge and Solid Work Applications. My concern is when working with large/heavy assembly structures.
What can be the few tips so that heavy data download from SAP Content server to local working directories can flow in less time and less likelihood of system getting crashed. Also is there something like a time period involved in CDESK by which if all assemblies or parts dont download, it crashes. If yes how can the time be increased. Basically how to improve efficiency while working with heavy assemblies for Solid Edge/Solid Work through CDESK
All useful answers would be awarded points.
thanks in advance.
Sachin

Thats abs right.
in system preferences > register doc
what u set here will take the name for hard disk.
actually it should take DocumentNumber_descrip.par
and likewise
even if u dont do this, it ok..

How easy is CAD Integration out-of box

Hi All
I am new to cad integration and we have downloaded Integrators from Service-sap for nx.
1) How easy will it be, the integration to NX system to SAP(out of Box-CD)?
2) Running the Integartion CD..will this automaticly do all the necessary configuration between NX and SAP?
3) How much config Do in GENERAL we have to do? I am only a DMS Business Analyst.
Thank you in advance.
Jim.P

Hello Peter,
Its not just executing the file. There are many other things which have to be done for the NX integrati tork.
You have to import the Table entries and BADIs provided with the installation.
Also you may have to use the templates, configure for title block integration to work.
Plan content server architecture etc...
Most important is you may have to migrate data. Apply many pathces for which you have to contact DSC.

SAP Business One Integration Services Authentication Failed

Dear ,
ALL SAP forum members,
Iam Using SAP Business One 8.81 PL 06, Micorsoft SQL 2008 R2
In SLD B1DI and JDBC, the connections were tested successfully.
Whenever I log into SBO, I am getting "SAP Business One Integration Services Authentication Failed" error message. I did extensive research on all possible SBO documents dating 1 year back especially in B1ic Troubleshooting Document (New and Old) and searched the length of the SBO forums, but I could not a solution.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the B1f package many a time. The integration services we re also restarted many times and the connections were all tested successfully. Firewall, AntiVirus also checked.
In the B1f, in the Monitoring Window, the login is "Ok" but the AuthCheck is "Failed". I checked Authent.Monitor->Authentic Info and I found the following message under Action message "Wrong Usrname and Password".
I debugged and i found again "/com.sap.b1i.vplatform.scenarios.authen/sap.Xcelsius/Authenticate_Check.bfd
But could not understand much of it.
But i could go no further. The experts are requested to suggest their solutions, If any, to me as Iam stuck in this phase for the last 3 week
I hope some experts will guide me over this issue
Thanks and regards
Ashish Gupte

Hi Konstantin Ryahovsky
Thanks for your reply. My problem is solved.
And frankly speaking i dont know how it was solved. I have not uninstall, install ,not even i had restarted the server also.
only change i did in SLD >> Maintainance >>> cfg Runtime >>>> Put server IP address instead of server Name and restarted the services.
Thanks & regards

Questions on SAP/SF PO Integration & SF BizX RBP

Dear Experts,
We are implementing SAP HCM and SF. SF goes live before SAP. We'll have a transition period from Flat File upload to SAP PO integration.
Would anyone have any recommendation on how to ensure a smooth seamless transition? We have tested in the test instance, and noticed some issues when SAP PO is turned on, i.e. User Name upper and lower cases, certain derived fields generated duplicate records, default locale was not passed from SAP and therefore overrides SF provisioning config, and users are not always in sync (bizX vs LMS). We will be using SOAP (Axis) Adapter for integration between SF and SAP.
A few questions:
1. Below are some of our data mapping, would appreciate if anyone has any recommendations/better suggestions or tips on these fields?
SAP Pers ID = SF User ID
SAP SSO ID (0105) = SF User Name (did anyone have issues with User ID - unique identifier and User Name - unique name for each user id?)
Manager field: we are using A002, if no value use B012, if no value use one up manager (by using one up manager, would this cause any issues?)
Time zone will be defaulted based on the employee's SAP ID (has anyone experienced issues with Timezone? especially for companies in Australia?)
Hire Date: is it true Hire Date must be in US format? When default locale is Eng_GB and timezone is Australia?
Initially we do not use Job code as it's not configured in SAP. We mapped Tilte = SAP Position Title. Is it possible to map SF LMS Job Title to Position Title in BizX?
Default Locale: we hard coded to "Eng_GB"
2. We would like to set up a filter to select certain population of employees to be passed to SF. In our case we would like to pass only employees with an ESS user role. Does anyone know if there is a way of identifying and picking up only ESS users to be sent to SF?
3. With Flat File integration, you recieve on screen error for pre import errors/warnings and an email notification after import. For SAP PO integration, we will have a nightly job to transfer employee data to SuccessFactors. Errors that occurred during the interface are stored in auto logs which are provided through the background job log. Is it true that the only way to check if there are failed/errored employees is by going into Webdypro and check the job log? Or would it be possible for SAP to send notifications of the pre PO errors and SF to send post PO errors? With Flat File load, the person whom imported the file will receive import status notification. With SAP PO since it is a batch job, how do we configure for a centralised email inbox to be the recipient?
4. BizX security question: we do not want to show employee MI to users. RBP is set up not to display MI, BizX displays correctly except for under Company Info -> Directory, employees' MI is still showing. Is there a way to hide MI completely from users?
5. We have experienced some User Connector issues, i.e. BizX and LMS are not always in sync, employees can be found in BizX but not always showing up in LMS. Does anyone have any tip or know the root cause for this issue?
6. Lastly, is it true you are not able to delete records EVER in SF? Even if the record was created by error and no learning history attached?
Thank you so much in advance. Any feedback is highly appreciated!!
Vera

Hi Vera,
What version and Support Package of the add-on are using?
1. These are some of my recommendations:
Manager field: we are using A002, if no value use B012, if no value use one up manager (by using one up manager, would this cause any issues?) >For this you need to ensure if there is no manager that the value is NO_MANAGER
Time zone will be defaulted based on the employee's SAP ID (has anyone experienced issues with Timezone? especially for companies in Australia?) >You need to ensure you have the exact correct Timezone text - ask your implementation partner for the text
Hire Date: is it true Hire Date must be in US format? When default locale is Eng_GB and timezone is Australia? >All date formats must be in US format (MM/DD/YYYY)
Default Locale: we hard coded to "Eng_GB" >It should be "EN_GB", not "Eng_GB"
2. You can do this with a report variant, but you'll need to ensure that users can be identified by the available criteria.
3. The WebDynpro is only for the Compensation process integration. I would post this specific question in the SAP NetWeaver Technical Integration with ERP
6. This is not true. You can use the Purge Data option.
Regarding questions 4 and 5, I need to put my SCN moderator hat on. Please can you create new posts as they are not related to integration and it is best practice to keep one topic to one post.
Best regards,
Luke

SAP APO with SAP R/3 integration

Hi All,
From a technical perspective, what is it that a developer should know to work on SAP APO with SAP R/3 integration. Kindly elaborate on this if you can...
Thanks in advance.
Marvin
Edited by: Marvin Jones on Feb 3, 2008 5:09 AM

Standard APO and R/3 CIF integration does not need additional ABAP coding.
However if you are going to enhance any master or transaction data while transfer via CIF using BADI or User-exits then good amount of ABAP expertise is required.
Per my understanding USer-exits are classical ABAP while BADI are Object-oriented.
While I cannot comment if there will be "immense" amount of coding to be done but CIF user exits remain a critical component of any implementation. Its not the "amount" but "complexity" - need to understand the source system and target system behaiour and then accordingly modify, that matters.
Thumbrule - if its master data modification then its simple. If its transaction data modification then its can become quite complex.
Hope this helps.

UCCX 8.5: CSQ Name Displayed in CAD Integrated Broswer?

Cisco Forum:
Can UCCX 8.5 for the Cisco Agent Desktop (CAD) provide the CSQ Name in the Integrated Broswer portion of the CAD? That is, the CAD can be used to pop a web link to agents on incoming calls. While the CAD can show the CSQ Name by default, it does so in a reasonable small font amid other data. Can some call script variable be set for the CSQ Name which would then be used to dynamically pop a unique web link on CAD Integrated Browser which would then display whatever is configured as a web link to display?
As an alternative, can agents using the CAD also have a IP Phone display of the CSQ Name.
Thank you for your comments and suggestions.
Dan

Before you can pass the CSQ name to the integrated browser you must first have the script pass the CSQ name to the CAD. It needs to show in the top left panel where the ANI is currently displayed.
See this link for an example of how to create a layout and the script changes to pass a value to CAD.
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3478154#3478154
You can then build a dynamic URL in the desktop administrator with the CSQ name.
Please rate helpful posts.
