Challenges Easy to use Provide data easily Get fast access to the provided Data Simple data import Data and process security München Externer Dienstleister Berlin Konstruktion
14
...more challenges Customer don‘t want to share his know how with the Supplier Simplified design Design-Envelop-Approach Bounding geometry Only the needed data will be provided In best case: one part Protection of the provided data No unmeant modification for the source Data Easy update scenario Update easily changes in the design for purchaser and supplier
15
Solutions Direct connection via VPN Fast internet access needed Existing VPN access to the company network ... Provide data manually Autodesk Streamline FTP Email DVD ...
16
Solutions – Overview Access via VPN Stable and fast VPN-connection needed Download faster than the Upload „External“ works like an „Internal“ No Data-Export/Import needed Data are always up to date Access to all standard parts User will have special rights and a special view (e.g. One special Folder) Additional administrative costs Available license for the ext. supplier? No access to the Vault Database Manual, deferred database update Not so much Admin costs Additional effort for the data export/import Standard parts database has to be provided Use Case: enclosed/completed design task Rename of data is not allowed Remove of data is not allowed No additional license needed Direct connection via VPNProvide data manually

Good To Know - Purchaser Provide a Vault environment as database backup Include Number-scheme, Lifecycle, Templates, etc Provide your standard parts database „MDF“ file can be imported via ADMS Console Provide „local content“ (if used – see Inventor settings) Duplicate standard parts will be recognized during data import Define a Folder structure for the supplier Supplier saves his data in this special folder(s). This folder could be renamed later. A project file Use identical workspaces Lifecycle (release for transfer at the purchaser) Process security and project documentation Create a „supplier“ user Follow which file was created, modified etc by whom

25
Good To Know - Supplier Document of your delivered effort using lifecycle status Follow: what was delivered and when, which version was delivered Which changes from the Purchaser had affected your design Restore the purchaser backup Detach all existing DBs in your ADMS Console (otherwise all DBs will be deleted) Use one single „Vault“ per each purchaser Not used Vaults can be backed up/detached Use only the specific Vaults from that Clients you are working for Detach all not used Vaults to keep performance Purge your local workspace before you do an import! Choose the „right“ project file before starting your work! Use identical workspace structure Important for standard parts, iParts...
