About Most clients have Assembly Planner import the eBOM from their PDM/PLM system along with a corresponding Engineering Change Order which contains important details about this change. Assembly Planner then allows the manufacturing engineer to reconcile the eBOM against any existing mBOM (if one exists) to determine what subsequent changes need to be performed against the Process and subsequent shop floor instructions, tooling, and logistics. Often these changes happen under the context of one or multiple corresponding Manufacturing Change Orders (MCO) which define Effective Date, Series, or Serial numbers for which the change is to apply. Once the mBOM and BOP data are complete and reconciled within Assembly Planner this information is Published to ERP, Logistics, and Shop Floor MES/Andon. In the diagram above, Proplanner solutions are shown in Blue with ERP and PDM integrations shown in yellow.
