Usage > Trade connectors > PLM > PLM interface launch 

The PLM interface is used to import in the X3, the data of the Products and Production BOMs database coming from the PLM @UDROS product.

This interface processing uses the setups specified in the PLM setup function to load:

  • The Productstables:

    - ITMMASTER - Products
    - ITMFACILIT - Products Sites
    - ITMBPS - Products Suppliers
     
  • the BOMstables
     
    - BOM - Header BOMs
    - BOMD - Detail BOMs

SEEREFERTTO The principles of the interface functioning and the loading terms of these tables are given in the documentation about the PLM setup.

    Screen management

    Entry screen

    Presentation

    It is only necessary to enter the reference identifying the PLM interface setup to use and also to modify, if required, the storing directories of the interface files.

    A log file is systematically displayed by default at the end of the processing.

    Note: if the processing ends with an error and/or rejects, an email will be sent to the two recipients indicated in the setup function.
