chemSHERPA Exports

Materials Compliance Management can export data to the chemSHERPA Article Tool or Chemical Tool. The chemSHERPA Article Tool allows suppliers to enter information about products.

A new attribute named SCIP is added to Materials Compliance Management to define whether the threshold is specific to a SCIP. This attribute has the value as Yes, Blank. The default value is Blank.

The SCIP attribute is required for:

  • During export to chemSHERPA Article Tool 2.02, the Materials Compliance Management need to include the data related to SCIP for thresholds.
  • During the import, the app verifies, which threshold is required the SCIP information and if the data are missing for the threshold that is exceeded, the warning message is displayed.
  • When a declared threshold for the enterprise part is created and if a threshold is required the SCIP data, the app includes the information related to the SCIP attribute.

First Article and Sub-tier Part Export

Export to the chemSHERPA format is updated to include the changes related to the first article and subtier. To export the data to chemSHERPA format, by default, the Include Subtier is added. The compliance (Class c) export uses the created declared thresholds and also SCIP data is included if it is present. The composition (class D) export to chemSHERPA includes 3 levels of parts as Product, Level, and Component.

The following tables describe the details about export criteria for each level and examples:

Table 1. Level and Mapping
Level Materials Compliance Management Mapping Description
Product Part Top Level Part Export selected as EP. If the SCIP data at this level is present, it is included in the export.
Level Part First article part Example 1 (a)

First article part is a leaf and a parent is selected as EP

Export empty part
Example 1 (b)

First article part is a leaf and no parent

Export is not supported for this BOM structure and the error message is displayed.
Example 2

First article part is a leaf and parent is not selected EP

Export immediate parent of the leaf part and if the SCIP data at this level is present, it is included.
Example 3

First article part is not a leaf

Export first article part and if the SCIP data at this level is present, it is included.
Component Part Leaf part (parent of material) Export a part without the SCIP data as chemSHERPA is not included at this level.

Example 1

P1 (1 EA)
  • P2 (2 EA) - MEP - Example 1
    • Material
Where Example 1, refer the Example 1 (a) and (b) from the Level and Mapping table.
In this example, the P2 is the first article.
P1 Product Part
Empty part as the placeholder Level Part
  • P2 (1 EA) -MEP
    • Material
Component Part (IsArticle=true)

Example 2:

P1
  • P2 (1 EA)
    • P3 (2 EA) - MEP
      • Subtier 1 (3 EA)
        • Subtier 2 (4 EA) - Example 2
          • Material
Where Example 2, refer the Example 2 from the Level and Mapping table.
In this example the leaf part Subtier 2 is the first article. Note the quantity of Subtier 1 in P1 is calculated.
P1 Product Part
  • Subtier 1 (6 EA)
Level Part
  • Subtier 2 (4 EA)
    • Material
Component Part (IsArticle=true)

Example 3

  • P1
    • P2 (1 EA)
      • P3 (3 EA) - MEP
        • Subtier 1 (3 EA) – Is Article = Yes - Example 3
          • Subtier 2 (4 EA)
            • Material
    Where Example 3, refer the Example 3 from the Level and Mapping table.
    In this example the leaf part Subtier 1 is the first article. Note the quantity of Subtier 1 in P1 is calculated.
    P1 Product Part
    Subtier 1 (6 EA) Level Part (IsArticle=true)
    • Subtier 2 (4 EA)
      • Material
    Component Part (IsArticle=false)

Example 3

  • P1
    • P2 (1 EA) – Is Article = Yes - Example 3
      • P3 (2 EA) – MEP
        • Subtier 1 (3 EA)
          • Subtier 2 (4 EA)
            • Material
    Where Example 3, refer the Example 3 from the Level and Mapping table.
    In this example P2 is the first article. Note the quantity of Subtier 2 in P2 is calculated.
    P1 Product Part
    P2 (1 EA) Level Part (IsArticle=true)
    • Subtier 2 (24 EA)
      • Material
    Component Part (IsArticle=false)
