3.2.7. Return Mapping

[Hinweis]Hinweis

Return Mapping is available for a lot of PDM systems.

Return mapping is used in order to display the PDM information in PARTsolutions.

Certain values are returned from the PDM to the LinkDB.

Example (using Teamcenter): We want to return the ItemID of the created component in a LinkDB column TC_ITEMID.

The concrete available placeholders can be found in the specific PDM sections.

  1. Open PARTlinkManager -> Extras menu -> Database -> Create/remove database columns.

    Create/remove database columns: Call

    Create/remove database columns: Call

  2. Create a new column in LinkDB's ERPTABLE named TC_ITEMID (exemplarily for Teamcenter).

    Enable the option Create ERP column.

    Details on how to create database columns can be found under Abschnitt 4.3, „Datenbankspalten hinzufügen / entfernen “.

  3. Configure ifnxteamcenter.cfg.

    Make sure that the following two keys are enabled.

    [AttributeMapping(is3d)] 
Attr_Content_00=LINKDB_RETURN_MAPPING
Attr_Section_00=LINKDB_RETURN_MAPPING

  4. In the following section, add the key "ERPTABLE.TC_ITEMID" with the supported value "%TC_ItemId%".

    [LINKDB_RETURN_MAPPING(is3d)] 
ERPTABLE.COLUMNNAME=<specific_placeholder>

  5. Open PARTdataManager in order to test the export.

    Before you try to export a new part, you need to insert an ERP_PDM_NUMBER to the part you want to export.

    Select the desired row and click on the button Add dataset to link database.
