Dear @First Employee , We are looking for the same kind of functionalities. Business case : we allow our customer to ask for Customer order configuration modification. Before internal validation, we want to evaluate the impacts of the configuration modification. (impacts on BoMs and routings). We don’t want to create every time a new DOP to perform the evaluation. The customer create an Interim order to store the new configuration requested. The comparison is performed using “Product estimate management” screen. 1- Creation of an estimate for the “old” configuration2- Creation of an estimate for the “new” configuration3- Use of the “compare” functionality → Unfortunately, when BoM are too big/deep, the comparison don’t work (it is working well on small products. The good point of this functionality is the possibility of a comparison throught several sites. Let us know how did you managed to finally deal with your issue ! Kind regardsClément
Hi @GPIE Thank you for your reply, I’m actually investigating the capacities of interface between Windchill from PTC and IFS. Ideally, we would like to use our PLM as master for parts, CAD BoMs , eBoms (which are not the same as CAD BoMs), mBoM and routings.All theses BoMs and routings are largely configurable, reason why we would like to use the PLM’s capabilities to design them before transfert of configurable mBoM and configurable routing to IFS.
Hi @GPIE , I’m looking for this kind of link as well.Could you tell us to which PLM system did you connect IFS ? You wrote that the link you created allows you “transfert Engineering and Inventory Parts and BOMs between PLM and IFS”. Are these transferts working in both directions (PLM to IFS and IFS to PLM) or only in the PLM to IFS direction ? Which kind of BoMs are you talking about ? EBoM for the IFS PDM, or directly mBoM ? Many thanks in advance
