Rule For Overwriting Modified Structure on a PDM System (3DEXPERIENCE platform Or X-PDM)

The structure that is exchanged in XPDMXML is considered as the correct structure. Below is an example scenario.

  1. 3DEXPERIENCE platform creates P1 and user sends P1 to X-PDM .
  2. P1 gets created at X-PDM.
  3. In 3DEXPERIENCE platform P2 is added under P1 while in X-PDM P3 is added under P1.
  4. If X-PDM exports first then structure will be P1-P3 in both systems.

    If 3DEXPERIENCE platform exports first then structure will be P1-P2 in both systems.

    Notes:
    • The changes done in local PDM are lost.
    • In first case, in 3DEXPERIENCE platform, only Engineering BOM relationship is removed and P2 remains in database.
