CIDEON PRO.FILE – SAP Interface

Consistent data for consistent processes: Connect your PDM system with SAP using the CIDEON PRO.FILE - SAP interface.

Connect SAP With Your PDM System PRO.FILE

With the CIDEON PRO.FILE - SAP interface you can ensure an automatic exchange of information between SAP and your PDM system PRO.FILE. This allows you to work efficiently across departments in the product development process and throughout the entire product life cycle.

Connect SAP And PDM Using The CIDEON PRO.FILE - SAP Interface

Product innovations are a key factor for sustainable corporate success and require efficient and seamless collaboration between all departments in the product development process. The foundation for this is homogeneous and consistent data that is available to all those involved.

With the CIDEON PRO.FILE - SAP interface you receive a solution that enables the intelligent exchange of all development-relevant data and information. Without any additional effort, documents, component/material data, parts lists and projects are made available to other areas and processes - including bidirectional change information if desired.

Thereby, everyone works with the system they are familiar with. Because while PRO.FILE is tailored to the requirements in development and design, production, purchasing, sales or finance continue to use the information in the ERP system - SAP PDM interface made easy for everyone involved.

Use Cases

The CIDEON PRO.FILE - SAP interface connects your PDM system to SAP and enables the exchange of development-relevant product information between the two solutions. Find out which typical problems you can prevent in the future:

Lack of Data Availability

Your employee in the purchase department wants to take care of the material acquisition for the new order, but he does not have direct access to the relevant data. Therefore, he has to ask his colleagues for the necessary information and then enter it into SAP to place the order.

Error in Double Data Entry

Errors occurred when entering the additional article data in the PDM system. Now two employees are sitting together to match the data - time they would rather use for productive work.

Complex Project Management

You use SAP project management and need certain data in PRO.FILE as well? To be able to view this data, you either have to switch systems or ask a colleague, as you do not have access to the project management in SAP.

Manual System Switch

For your daily work, you often need to view financial data. To do this, you have to be familiar with the required views in SAP or search for them with difficulty because you do not work with SAP regularly. Ideally, you would be able to easily view all data in one place without having to switch systems and would then have more time for other tasks.

Your Advantages With The SAP PDM Interface

Benefit from the CIDEON PRO.FILE - SAP interface and create an excellent process integration.

No Data Redundancy

The consistent database is available to all participants at all times - always up-to-date and always valid. Errors are minimised while quality increases.

Automation

The availability of the relevant information is automated. Changes are directly visible and retraceable. Long gone are the days when data was passed on manually.

Time and Cost Savings

No double data entry, no troubleshooting due to incorrect or old data, no manual post-processing - use the newly gained resources for productive tasks.

Secure Processes

Consistent data and automated processes give you the security you need in the product development process and increase quality at the same time.
