Integration Workflow - Data Transfer to AVEVA ERM_Outfitting Assembly

The integration workflow for transferring the OutfittingAssembly PartList information from AVEVA Marine to AVEVA ERM is as follows:

1. Configure a filter in AVEVA Marine.

2. Update the status for the PartList to Identified.

3. Publish components from AVEVA Marine to AVEVA ERM.

4. Import data into AVEVA ERM.

5. Verify the transferred data in AVEVA ERM.

6. Provide feedback on data consumption.

7. Process feedback in AVEVA Marine.

Configure a filter in Design Application

The Settings dialog box in AVEVA Marine contains the settings to configure the integration of outfitting assembly part lists.

A new part list setting must be created in AVEVA Marine before transferring data. The Select for Publish check box column allows the users to view the selected information in the PartList Preview. Select the check box for the required rows and save the settings by clicking Save.

Update the status for the PartList to Identified

AVEVA Marine a status called “PublishingStatus” for all part list elements. The status of ASMBLY is modified through the Status controller window. Only approved designs can be published. ASMBLY should be progressed to “Identified” state before publishing.

Publish components to AVEVA ERM

Part lists satisfying the selection criteria can be exported to AVEVA ERM. For each selected row from the PartListSettings dialog box, a tabbed page is created in the Publish to AVEVA ERM dialog box that displays the elements that satisfy the criteria (considering the Type of the Element and Publishing status) in the first grid.

Select the required ASMBLY element and click Publish to expose data to AVEVA ERM. Status of the ASMBLY is moved to ‘Published’ and an ‘Update’ notification is sent to AVEVA ERM.

Import data into AVEVA ERM

After the components are published by AVEVA Marine, the components are available for import in AVEVA ERM. An ‘Update’ notification with context “OutfittingAssembly” is received in AVEVA ERM and the user can act on it.

To import the outfitting assembly part list in AVEVA ERM:

8. In AVEVA ERM, open the s14002 Integration Messages screen and click Process Messages. The d0211 Process Messages dialog box with the list of messages that can be processed is displayed.

9. Select the message with object type OutfittingAssembly for the appropriate design project and click Process. The outfitting assembly part list items from AVEVA Marine are imported.

The import of outfitting assembly from AVEVA Marine can also be done without an ‘Update’ notification, using the s22050 Data Import screen. For more information, see Manual Import of Data in AVEVA ERM.

The information about errors, if any, is displayed in the Audit Summary and Audit Detail grids. Click Show import file audits to view all audit messages for a single file run in a batch. Click Show all audits to information related to all audits.

When import is completed in AVEVA ERM, the system generates an ‘Acknowledgement’ or ‘Error’ notification according to the result of the import.

Verify data in AVEVA ERM

After the outfitting assembly part list elements are imported, AVEVA ERM creates or updates the assembly information accordingly. The assemblies published from AVEVA Marine are added to the drawing catalogue in AVEVA ERM, and can be viewed in the s20012 Drawing Catalogue screen.

After a successful import of outfitting assembly Part List data from AVEVA Marine, all the assemblies published from AVEVA Marine will be added on drawing catalogue in AVEVA ERM which is available on screen s20012.

Additionally, AVEVA ERM also creates a Part List header and a list of Part List items which hold the material. This information is displayed in AVEVA ERM on the s21000 Part Lists screen.

If the OutfittingAssembly transfer is done after the Outfitting data was already transferred to AVEVA ERM, the items from Outfitting Part Lists corresponding to the ZONEs already transferred are moved to Assembly Drawing Part Lists. In order to identify the items that should be moved, it uses the DesignUniqueId information mapped in AVEVA ERM as Model Ref.

After the import is done AVEVA ERM sends feedback on data consumption to AVEVA Marine using the notification mechanism. When the import finished successfully, ‘Acknowledgement’ is sent back to AVEVA Marine. In case of problems during import, an ‘Error’ is sent to AVEVA Marine.

Provide feedback on data consumption in AVEVA ERM

After the import is done, AVEVA ERM sends feedback on data consumption to AVEVA Marine using the notification mechanism. When the import is completed successfully, ‘Acknowledgement’ is sent back to AVEVA Marine. In case of problems during import, an ‘Error’ is sent to AVEVA Marine.

An OutfittingAssembly import can generate both Acknowledgement and Error notifications if only few part list headers are successfully imported. Both Acknowledgement and Error notification have the same Id as Part List header Id.

Process feedback in Design Application

After the import of data is complete, AVEVA ERM sends feedback on data consumption to AVEVA Marine using the notification mechanism. One of the following actions takes place in AVEVA Marine:

• In case of an ‘Acknowledgement’ notification, the status of the component is promoted to ‘Imported’ if Promote Status is clicked.

• In case of an ‘Error’ notification, the status of the component is demoted to ‘Rework’ if Demote Status is clicked.

This ensures that after a data transfer is successfully completed, the data is removed from the source table.
