Document Management

This module covers merge workflows for the following Document Management related objects and their respective child nodes:

  • Documents

  • Tool Version Management

  • Symbol Library Management

  • When you merge documents present only in the source, then the document files (Symbol DLL) get merged automatically as an additional dependency.

  • To merge the child data for records present in Source only, in the Save window, select Save child dependencies for source only.

  • When data is merged at the commodity code level without applicable documents, only dependent parent data like PDB documents, symbol libraries, and symbols will get merged. You must merge additional dependencies like document files and PDB document views manually to get symbol DLLs and gif files at the time of commodity code export using the Smart Reference Database Transfer Jobs screen.

Attribute Management

This module allows you to merge Attribute groups and their respective child nodes.

  • You must verify and merge attribute groups, attributes, and attribute values at each level.

  • The merging of additional child dependencies is not applicable for these data nodes.

Table Management

This module allows you to merge the following Table Management related objects and their respective child nodes:

  • Table Types (For Details)

    This node is used to merge the tables and their respective details. There are three types of tables in this module, which are:

    • Commodity Code Tables

    • Interface Tables

    • Specification Tables

  • Table Types (All) -Table Attributes

    This node is used to merge the tables and their respective attributes, which are used for creating geometrics.

  • As the data is huge in this module, it is recommended to use the Excel Report functionality to identify the required data that needs to be merged if the Differences not shown in hierarchy mode is used for migration.

  • Under the Commodity Code Tables node, a quick merge node, Commodity Code Table Details (Differences Only), is provided to facilitate quick merging of all the table detail differences under a single node instead of navigating across multiple nodes in the hierarchy. For easy identification, this node is color coded with the Magenta color.

  • If you face an error message, Unique Constraint (M_SYS.TD_ID_U01) Violated, while merging table details, you must run the TR_53527_update_sequence_val.sql script (Available at: <SDB Installation Location>\db_server\scripts) on the target database.

Geometric Management

This module allows you to merge the following Geometric Management related objects and their respective child nodes:

  • All types of Geometric Tables - This node is used to merge all the geometric related data (Commodity geometrics, Filter geometrics, Other geometrics, Other special geometrics, Rating geometrics, Standard geometrics, and Wall thickness geometrics).

  • Nominal Sizes - This node is used to merge the nominal size tables used in the specifications.

  • Outer Diameters - This node is used to merge the outer diameter tables.

  • Branches - This node is used to merge the branch tables used in the specifications.

  • Schedules - This node is used to merge the outer diameter tables.

  • Nominal Reducers - This node is used to merge the nominal reducer tables.

  • Metric/English Equivalence - This node is used to merge English to metric Equivalence tables.

  • When you select Source Only and Save direct children for source only data, geometric rules will merge the respective rule definitions automatically.

  • For Target Only records, you must verify that the data does not create any duplicates in the target database and take appropriate actions to prevent the same.

SHARED Tip As there is a lot of data in this module, you can use the Excel Report functionality to review the data.

Commodity/Ident Management

This module allows you to merge the following Commodity/Ident Management related objects and respective child nodes:

  • Commodity Rules - This node is used to merge the commodity rules and their child details.

  • Commodity Group/Part/Commodity Codes - This node is used to merge commodity groups, parts, commodity codes, and respective child details in a sequential order.

    Under the Commodity Group/Part/Commodity Code node, a quick merge node, Commodity Code Descriptions (Differences Only) and Commodity Code layouts (Differences Only), is provided to facilitate quick merging of all the Commodity Code Description differences and Commodity Code layout differences, respectively under a single node instead of navigating across multiple nodes in the hierarchy. For easy identification, this node is color coded with the Magenta color.

    • For Commodity code, the Delete and Replace functionality is implemented as commodity code, which is completely dependent on commodity code details. And partial merging of commodity code details will lead to incorrect data in the customer database. With this, even if you select a single record for merge, all the data under that node will get merged to the target database automatically.

    • It is recommended to build the required commodity idents and geometric relations from SRD instead of merging through the SDB Merge Tool.

  • Object Parameters - This node is used to merge object parameters and their child details.

  • Part Object Parameters - This node is used to merge object parameters linked with the parts.

  • Parts with Table Groups and Parts with Table Details - These nodes are used to merge table groups and table details linked with the parts.

  • Parts with SP3D Short Codes - This node is used to merge Smart 3D short codes assigned at the part level.

SHARED Tip As there is a lot of data in this module, you can use the Excel Report functionality to review the data.

  • In the SDB Merge Tool, the Code list number associated with a PDB document is displayed instead of the PDB document sequence.

  • The Commodity codes are updated with the latest commodity rules in the database. You must merge commodity rules and update the commodity codes first in SRD, and then use SDB. Otherwise, duplicate commodity codes will be created in the target database.
