ERP system and the PDM system interface technology
ERP system and the PDM system description
PDM (Product Data Management) is a management of all product-related information (including electronic documents, digital files, database records), and all product-related processes (work processes, change processes, project management) technology, he provided product lifecycle information management, and can be enterprise-wide product design and manufacture of the establishment of a parallel-oriented collaborative environment.
ERP (enterprise resource planning) will be within the enterprise in various sectors, including finance, accounting, production, materials management, quality management, sales and distribution, human resources management, supply chain management, use of information technology integration, together. Different managers in a certain jurisdiction, through its own dedicated account, the password you can easily access from the Internet with their own management responsibilities among the other sectors of data.
Interface practical problems
ERP system, the manufacturing BOM, derived from the PDM system, PDM system, management information system to produce a CAD product information, including attributes such as spare parts, product structure relationships, but also CAPP system to produce management process from the processing of information, including the processing procedure , job number, working hours, consumption of materials, the information of enterprise production and management of basic data is the ERP system, the input data. In the two systems are not connected prior to rely on manual methods to re-enter and modify, it is difficult to ensure correct, but it is also no way to do, ERP systems are based on sql server database, while PDM is based on the oracle database, due to design different ways of thinking, data format is different, there are permissions problems, so the two systems need to have an interface responsible for data updates.
PDM systems and ERP systems in both management and product-related information, only a different purposes and functions of management. The relationship between PDM and ERP, with embedded and non-embedded, and now the domestic ERP vendors have not done the basic interface, when the company's ERP system. Data interface will always encounter problems, sometimes have to wait until after the PDM system data interface further processing, is very troublesome. Because product-related data is in the product design and process generated in the process, that is produced under the management of PDM, and in the ERP system, this information only as a basic data entry system, whereby the preparation of master production scheduling, material requirements planning , capacity planning, procurement plans. In order to ensure that enterprises where ERP, PDM system, effective and rational operation of PDM and ERP systems need to develop interfaces to ensure the two systems and products related to consistency of data. |
