Assigning Field Sets (Table TCIM) (SAP Library - PDM Integration for AutoCAD)

Assigning Field Sets (Table TCIM)

Use

You define field set names for functions (process code + subprocess code), the direction in which data is transported (upload or download), and the CAD system settings to be used. You must enter all of the functions used by the CAD dialog interface (process code, subprocess code) as CAD system settings. The processes and subprocesses used will depend on the version of the AutoCAD-SAP interface – you might have to enter missing information as required. If only one CAD system communicates with this SAP System, you can also use the standard settings of the model CAD system ("DEMO")

Procedure

Transaction code: OD56

This table might already contain entries for other CAD systems. You can copy data from client 000 – this will mean that you do not have to define all the table contents manually.

Find the entry called "DEMO" in the first column.
Select all of the entries belonging to "DEMO," and copy these entries.
Specify a name for the CAD system (AUTOCAD, for example).

The table contains the following columns:

Column	Column Contents
CAD system	This column contains the logical name of the CAD system to be communicated with ("DEMO", for example, or "AUTOCAD"). This name should be the same as the value defined in the "cadrfc.ini" file for "CadDialogCadSystem".
Process code	Name of the process code
Subprocess code	Name of the subprocess code
Direction	Direction in which data is transported D (download ): SAP sends data to AutoCAD U (upload): SAP expects to receive data from AutoCAD
Set name	You can define this name yourself. Depending on the direction of transport (D or U), this name will be used in table TCID or TCIU. If you use data from client 000, a set name will already have been specified (this name is also used in table TCID or TCIU, depending on the direction of transport). You should not use this name because other programs might require it now or in the future. Consequently, if you make changes for one program, this might affect the functionality of the other program. One suggestion for the name is provided in the table below. Make a note of the names in client 000. This will make it easier for you to change tables TCIU and TCID.
Description	Describes the function that is executed by the process code and the subprocess code.

You might, for example, enter the following:

DEMO

MATRQ

MR

D

MTRQDAT

MATRQ
