When starting a Catalog update with existing ERP integration the dialog box CIP Installation is displayed by default.

You are asked whether you want to test the catalogs to be installed on possible mapping conflicts in the LinkDB before the installation. These then can be fixed in the Update manager ^[83] by a new assignment or by revoking the assignment.

If you want the catalog to be checked then click on Yes - Check Catalog.

	Note
	If no problems can be detected the installation will run through without any further notes.

If problems are detected, the dialog box CIP Installation will appear again.

On the tabbed page Protocol, you receive an overview with the following categories:

On the tabbed pages ERP Status and PLM Status the individual projects are listed with their status so that you can decide whether to perform the installation.

If yes then click on the button Install selected catalogs.

	Note
	With the help of the Update manager you can go through the questionable projects later and manually perform assignments. See Section 4.16.3, “ Catalog update with ERP integration - Fix mapping problems with the Update manager ”.

After clicking on Install selected catalogs the installation is running through. Finally a message pointing out the mapping problems appears.
