V5 -> 3DExp - Management of line ID (tactical solution)

Context:

when migrating V5 Data into 3DExperience , the link between lineID and Parts/pipe are lost

the following practice is a proposal to manage the line ID during the migration from CATIA V5 to 3DExperience

Thank you to @GF for having developped this Best practice:

Process overview

  • 01 | Export Line ID with Report
  • 02 | Import v5 data in 3DExperience (FBDI)
  • 03 | Create logical Product Structure
  • 04 | Link Line ID with piping elements (automation with EKL)

 

Process in detail

01 | Export Line ID with Report

 


Report used in CATIA V5 

 

IMPORTANT :

Due to EKL limitation, the first line of the excel report with the name of the report has to be delete.

02 | Import v5 data in 3DExperience

 

03 | Create logical Product Structure

 

04 | Link Line ID with piping elements

 

EKL Action :

3DXML - EKL Action in catalog :

 

Notes

I didn't succeed, in the allotted time, to used the BR FBDI to store the line ID information directly in 3Dexperience data.

So I used report from v5 to extract lineID/parts information.

The process can maybe be improved with the BR and consequently avoid the first step.
