Integration of ENOVIA V6 to SAP
January 2012: We are pleased to announce today that CIDEON has formed a development partnership with Dassault Systèmes. Our new product, CIDEON V6 xPDM - SAP Interface, developed in cooperation with our new partner, supports data and process synchronisation between ENOVIA V6 and SAP. The new software makes it possible to synchronise data and process information from ENOVIA V6, such as parts, bills of materials and workflows from Engineering Central, and design and specification data from CATIA V6 and V5 with SAP. Integration is based on a groundbreaking new concept. It is no longer necessary to run any functions or make entries through user interfaces in order to exchange information between the Dassault and SAP environments. Instead, the necessary data and process information are exchanged automatically between the systems, asynchronously and without delay.| Videos on → ENOVIA V6 Integration with SAP PLM (Catia V6) → ENOVIA V6 Integration with SAP PLM (Engineering Central) | ![]() |
The challenge of integrating Dassault Systèmes V6 (ENOVIA, CATIA, etc) with SAP
ENOVIA V6 offers not only comprehensive CAD model management, but also PLM functionalities. Most businesses have to integrate such a PLM solution into a complex IT infrastructure, as many planning and production processes run outside ENOVIA V6, e.g. on the SAP system. Both ENOVIA V6 and SAP PLM require information from each other in order to exploit their efficiency to the full. Linking such systems bi-directionally poses a complicated problem. Data must be synchronised without delay and extremely reliably, to avoid data loss or defective or incomplete data. CIDEON Software has developed the CIDEON V6 xPDM - SAP Interface to meet this challenge. The server solution, with optimised stability and data security, facilitates smooth data and process synchronisation between ENOVIA V6 and SAP, and is a crucial requirement for configuring efficient business processes.
"The development of V6 integration for SAP PLM will help us to stay on course for growth and to strengthen our market position further across all our divisions." Lenz Finster, Managing Director, CIDEON Software.
Compatible with SAP CAD desktop applications and SAP PLM 7.x
The CIDEON solution consistently guarantees the topicality of the objects set in its "standards" in the SAP system, e.g. documents, materials, bills of materials, metadata, etc. Established functionalities, particularly including functions from SAP PLM 7.x, can still be used with objects synchronised from V6. For example, all the familiar desktop functions, such as object and material links or the recovery of derived bills of materials using the change service, are still available.
"Our customers can rely on our expertise and years of experience in software development and system integration". Lenz Finster, Managing Director, CIDEON Software.
