AVEVA Schematic Model Manager is used to import P&ID data into Schematic databases, and to view and manage this data. P&ID data (which conforms to the ISO 15926 format) may be exported from the AVEVA Schematic Model Manager Gateway, AVEVA P&ID and from other supported P&ID systems.

AVEVA are committed to the use of open standards for the interchange of plant data between AVEVA and 3rd-party products. ISO 15926 is an open standard for the representation of process plant life-cycle information. This representation is specified by a generic, conceptual data model designed to be used in conjunction with reference data: standard instances that represent information common to a number of users, process plants, or both. For further information and for further information of which P&ID systems can feed data into the Schematic model through Schematic Model Manager, contact your local AVEVA sales office.

Once imported, P&ID data in the schematic database can be viewed and managed via a hierarchical data explorer (the Schematic Explorer). This explorer includes facilities for releasing selected schematic elements to the AVEVA Schematic 3D Integrator, for integration with the 3D Design Model database. Facilities are also provided to view P&IDs, both before and after import. A set of standard PDMS report templates for the schematic database are also included.

Note:
Only functionality specific to the Schematic Model Manager module is described in the manual.
Many of the facilities of the Schematic Model Manager module are the same as those in the Plant DESIGN module and Marine Hull and Outfitting module. Such facilities are not described in this guide. For further information, refer to the appropriate module documentation.
