MDA-PDM - Item-Related Master Data Management

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The master data management process cannot be viewed separately; instead, the individual instances belong to the corresponding subprojects. Therefore, these instances are handled here and are linked with the meta process MDA - Master Data Management.

Further master data from the PDM area can include the collection as well as the theme.

MDA-ITM - Master Data Management for Items

The management of items/models for merchandise management processes such as merchandise control, item categorization, item valuation, and many more takes place in the ERP system. Descriptive, categorizing, and valuating characteristics can be stored on the item. These characteristics serve later evaluability and transparency of downstream merchandise management processes. The following characteristics can be stored: classification into an item hierarchy, assignment of fashion dimensions to the item via classification into a product group, prices, procurement characteristics, characteristics for foreign trade, inventory characteristics, etc..

This process describes the capture of costings in PLM for an item.

Costings are used to calculate the item in advance of procurement or production with regard to procurement costs. It is also possible to carry out the costing up to the different sales prices and recommended sales prices.

This process explains the storage and description of model properties in the product development process. It is also used to assign materials, accessories, and descriptive texts. In addition to the color position and the material used on it, further information can be captured in textual form. Accessories are used, among other things, to declare tags, labels, flags, buttons, and zippers. Further accessory types can be defined in the master data through a flexible classification.

This process describes the definition and management of measurement charts. The specified measurements per measurement point and size are managed in the measurement charts. Measurement charts are used for communication between product development, producer, and quality management. Measurement charts can be managed in different versions and created from templates. A measurement chart always applies to one size system (size range) of an item.

This process describes the capture and control of sample parts with regard to the specification from the measurement charts transmitted to production. In product monitoring, it is possible to carry out a capture for each sample process (for example sample order). This (sample) measurement chart can be evaluated across all sizes. The control measurements are carried out iteratively. Finally, the result of all controls can be monitored and viewed in relation to the measurement charts.
