Use

Information about technical objects that are to be maintained can also exist in the form of documents (for example, design drawings, programs or photographs). Documents are managed, visualized and archived in the document management system as master records.

As documents are frequently required during the execution of maintenance tasks, you can directly link the document master records with the master record of the technical object. By using the corresponding application or a view program, almost every document can be made available at the work centers concerned.

Prerequisites
