Configuring SAP to Connect to DMS References

Introduction

In recent years , the increasing complexity of products has led to increasingly complex development tools , such as computer-aided  design  (CAD)  systems , and  m ore  advanced  production  processes , such  as  computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems . CAD and CAM tools have been used to optimize production times and quality.

As this process becomes m ore complex, the systems for managing the technical documents involved need to be m ore sophisticated. The m any different procedures for describing products (such as design drawing, photographs, and texts) mean that there is a huge increase in digitally stored data.

The quality and availability of documentation is becoming increasingly important. The Document Management

System (DMS) in the SAP System offers the following advantages:

If you link document management to computerized development and production systems, you avoid data redundancy, maintain consistency of data, and minimize the workload involved in entering and updating your data.

In order to us e large databases to the full, you need to be able to exchange data quickly and securely. You can access your data directly using electronic search tools, or find documents using known parameters. You can also search for and display documents (original application files) via the Internet/intranet.

You can us e document distribution to distribute documents that are managed in the document management system (DMS) either manually or automatically according to company-specific processes. This ensures that the employees responsible or external partners can view or process up-to-the-minute information.
