[XML_CHECKOUT]

Values can be fetched from the PLMTABLE2 or alternatively from a PARTsolutions column for example and be set in the PDM.

[XML_CREATE_MATERIAL]

Currently uncommented, because not in use.

Do not change, unless with expert know-how.

Keys enclosed with $ characters are placeholders, which are found in the XML templates.

[XML_CREATE_DOCUMENT]

Input data for the document creation in SAP.

At all keys, set the desired values.

[XML_CHECKIN]

The values are set by the interface. Do not change, unless with expert know-how.

[XML_SET_DOCUMENT_STRUCTURE]

Caution NEVER change the following two keys: $IsNotASM$(is3dasm)=?"" $IsNotASM$(NOT is3dasm)=?"1"

The following 6 keys are set by the interface. NEVER change or rename !!!

[XML_CHECKOUT_NEW]

[LINKDB_RETURN_MAPPING]

Via section [LINKDB_RETURN_MAPPING] you can add data to the link database (PLINKDB).

<TABLE>.<COLUMN>=?<VALUE>

Possible values for <TABLE>: ERPTABLE or LINKTABLE

Possible values for <COLUMN>: All columns except ERP_PDM_NUMBER

<VALUE>: The value whereon the parameter <TABLE>.<COLUMN> is set.

This can contain placeholders such as %MATNR%, which will be replaced by the PDM interface by the correct value.

Example:

part1_%MATNR%_part2 is replaced by part1_12345_part2.

As of version 9.08 the number and the way of declaration of placeholders has changed.

Supported placeholders are:

{%dis-number%, %dis-type%, %dis-version%, %dis-part%, %matnr%, %dis-dtype%}

Example:

ERPTABLE.SAPSTATUS=?"'%dis-number%"

At columns of the type "varchar" the whole <value> expression has to be enclosed with quotation marks ('...'). This is necessary for correct SQL queries:

Example:

ERPTABLE.MATNR=?"'%MATNR%'"
