1. Enhancements From R6, R7.x to R9 Enterprise Product Data Management (EPDM) David Kemp david.kemp@cistech.net

2. Current Item Revision The current Item Revision replaces the Item Master as the source of the item related information for the XA essentials applications: EPDM CSM PM MM OBPM

3. Current Item Revision If multiple Item Revisions exist for a Site/Item combination, the current Item Revision is determined by the Effective From and Effective To dates. The Current Item Revision function utilizes the following criteria:

4. Current Item Revision Example

5. Current Item Revision If no Item Revisions are effective for the system date but previous item revisions exist, EPDM selects the current based on:

6. Current Item Revision If no Item Revisions are effective for the system date and no previous item revisions exist but future item revisions do exist, EPDM selects the current based on:

7. Item Revision Control Function Performs analysis whenever Item Revisions are updated Performs analysis whenever System Date changes, usually run at midnight (unattached job) Can be run anytime as a host job for a selected Site

8. Item Revision Control Function Host Job in the Site Object

9. Item Revision Control Function

10. Updates Item Site file with current revision Logs change transaction for Item Site to maintenance history If Unit Cost Default is the cost basis, and the UCD is different, EPDM generates a CU transaction If the Revision has been released and the Auto Sync attribute is Yes, updates the Item Master files

11. New Object: Item Site File

12. Item Site File

13. Item Revision Control

16. Controlled Attributes Some attributes of Item Revisions are controlled at the Enterprise or the Site level If control exists at the Enterprise level, all revisions of an item across all Sites will have the same value for the attribute If control exists at the Site level, all revisions for that Site will have the same value for the attribute Prevents accidental change of the attribute when a new Item Revision is created

17. Controlled Attribute Controlled at the Enterprise Level Stocking Unit of Measure (UNMSR) Inventory Code (INVFG)

18. Controlled Attribute Controlled at the Site Level Batch/Lot Control (BLCF) Discrete Allocations (ALLOC) Inspect on Receipt (INTYP) Item Type (ITTYP) QC (Shelf Life) (QCTYP) Shelf Life Days (QCDAY)

19. Controlled Attribute Second Level of Maintenance (Security)

20. Controlled Attribute – 2 nd Level

21. Item Cost Roll-up Initiated in Client

22. Cost Roll-up in Client

23. Initiate costing run from the client Host job from Site or Item Revision Include affected assemblies Recosting this… Affected Assemblies …automatically recosts these Whereused

24. Cost Roll-up – Can be Done From Site Object

25. Labor/Overhead Table by site Labor/Overhead tables by Site – Previously was in SYSCTL – Common to all sites If not common to all sites… – Be careful when copying across sites Can have more codes – Field changed to alphanumeric (36 characters)

26. Double-Click on Site to see Parameters

27. Labor Rates at Site Level

28. Manufacturing OH at Site Level

29. Purchase OH at Site Level

30. Data More Convenient in R9 Site Data

31. New Data Layout for Item Revision

32. Item Revision Engineering Data

38. Inventory Detail Inside Item Rev

39. Sales Data Inside Item Revision

40. Cost Information in Item Revision Graphical Display Available

41. Costed Indented BOM Inquiry Costing added via Details – Standard or Current – Cost elements displayed for each item S-number filter – Can prompt for options (same as CSM) Summary costs – Options – Effective date – Extended quantity

42. Cost elements Summary costs

43. Costs adjust for quantity.

44. Bill and costs adjust for S-number

45. Cost Simulation object Multiple runs Unrestricted choice of parameters (vs. green screen) Results saved Results visible via PowerLink (vs. printout)

47. Simulation results Default: Sort by variance Variance not zero

48. Results at total item level… …and by cost element… …and by summary.

49. Two new objects Base Price Foreign Language Description Both allow entry & maintenance by item revision (not just item)

50. Base Prices in EPDM New pane on Sales card. Blue shows price in effect now.

51. Kits Now maintained in EPDM PDM+ not affected

52. The real benefits A tool is as good as the use you make of it R9 allows your company’s information infrastructure to be nimble – React to business needs – New standard application function – Instant custom function Unite people with better integration – Departmental systems – External users – Off-site internal users
