If you have cFolders 4.0, it is possible to transfer from CAD Desktop to cFolders directly

Hi Niranjan,

I presented this prototype at the ASUG 2005 Event in Anaheim, Presentation Number 3704 (if you are ASUG member, you can see the presentation there). I will mail you more info on the topic.

Best regards,

Martin

Hi Niranjan,

for the standard transactions always DMS is required (CDESK, CFE02). When you want to bypass DMS in order to save directly from CAD to cFolders, you have to write an own integration. Cenit for example did this already as a prototype. They implemented a Java Plug-In for the CAD system, that communicates then directly with the cFolders WebServices.

But why do you want to avoid DMS?

Hi Martin

we dont want to replicate drawings

When we are in design phase of new product we dont want to share drawings with R/3 people.

we only need drawing to circulate between designers

once it si released, we want it to be transferred to DMS.

Hi Nirnajan,

also this is possible with SAP PLM. The DMS there allows access control and provides a central access to the drawings with the right version etc. for the design community. For example then only released documents can then been seen by the rest of the company.

Hi Niranjan,

You can export Originals(CAD) directly to CFolders 4.0 without DMS, yes it is not possible in 3.1 or 3.0 version of CFolders.
