Overview
As part of ENOVIA’s strategic evolution toward a Physical Product Model-based approach, legacy Component Management apps will be removed from the Classification Manager (CCM) role starting from R2027x GA.
The following apps will be decommissioned:
| Decommissioned App (Prem) | Strategic Replacement App (Prem/cloud) |
|---|---|
ENOVIA New Part Request New Part Request (NPR) | CA | ENOVIA Sourcing Request Management Sourcing Request Engineer (XCR) | GA |
ENOVIA Component Request Administration & Management Supplier Item Manager (XSP) | GA | |
ENOVIA Component Classification Classification Manager (CCM) | GA | ENOVIA Supplier Item Qualification Supplier Item Manager (XSP) | GA |
ENOVIA Component Classify and Reuse Product Engineer (PDE) | CA | ENOVIA IP Classify & Reuse Collaborative Industry Innovator (CSV) | GA |

More than just a User Experience Change: A New Data Model
It is important to understand that this transition is not limited to a change in the User Experience:
It represents a fundamental shift in the Data Model ! We are moving from a legacy Engineering Central approach to a robust Physical Product Model-based approach that integrates Sourcing and Engineering more deeply. This ensures better data integrity and a seamless link between the engineering definition and the physical sourced items.
