Steel Engineering Management Using HELiOS

If you are using the PDM system HELiOS to manage your Steel Engineering drawings, assemblies and parts, you should pay special attention to the following notes.

• Steel Engineering parts in HELiOS behave like "normal" mechanical engineering production parts. HELiOS does not have special IDs or settings for them.
• For each different production part, a unique article master is generated in HELiOS and assigned to the part and its identical parts. The Identical Part Search/Itemisation function carries this out automatically for all newly itemised or calculated parts, and it applies to both 3-D parts with BOM-relevance and steel engineering parts. It requires the steel engineering options for itemising to be set accordingly.
• If a drawing for an individual part (detail drawing) exists, it will have a document master linked to the article master, which is automatically generated/updated in the Steel Engineering detail drawing function.
• If an individual part is detailed on an assembly drawing, its article master is linked to the document master of the assembly drawing via the HELiOS link Parts(s) drawing. The Workshop drawing function automatically creates this link.
• If an assembly is involved, a product structure of it will exist in HELiOS. The Itemisation function automatically transfers/updates this structure to the entire drawing, including all sub-assemblies. It requires the article master settings for drawing derivation to be set accordingly.

Important:

If you use a Steel Engineering suite or a Steel Engineering module in conjunction with HELiOS Engineer, please read the information given in the Drawing Management Online Help!
