Functionality

The BOM Bulk Import forms provide this functionality:

  • Allow you to define the mapping between the Infor PLM Discrete BOM XML, and the CloudSuite Industrial tables/columns (BOM Bulk Import Mappings form).
  • Import multiple Current BOMs using a single bulk process (BOM Bulk Import form) with the following capabilities:
    • Run in the foreground.
    • Run in the background.
    • Track errors and allow for viewing errors within CloudSuite Industrial (BOM Bulk Import Errors form).
    • Provide notification when errors occur while processing a BOM/XML file (BOM Bulk Import Errors form).
  • When importing a Current BOM:
    • You can flag an item so that when a new Current BOM is imported, the existing current BOM is stored using CloudSuite Industrial's create revision functionality.
    • The date and time of the import for the item is recorded.
    • Provide the ability to import Reference Designators for materials (set on the BOM Bulk Import Parameters form).
