- Neutral package - a briefcase to extract and reconcile product data
- Break through innovation for sharing design data across CAD / PDM / PLM Systems
- Meta data and physical design files are exchanged through the DMan package
- Created independent of any CAD/Authoring tool
- Supports IL8N – multiple languages
|
 |
 |
- Different adaptors to connect to connect to different data systems
- Design Managers can stop worrying about integrity of data exchange
- Automated and scheduled extraction streamlines the entire exchange and the product development process
- Flexible Parametric design practice between the OEM and the suppliers allows an Incredible Productivity for the whole project
|

 |
- Export module allows to search and export design information from source system into Neutral package – this package is later transferred to the target system
- Integration module allows to connect to the target system, integrate the package contents and help you resolve conflicts
- Import module allows you to import the contents in the target system
- Scheduler module allows you to execute and automate Neutral export, import at regular intervals
|
|
 |
- Both GUI and command line tools are available
- Only PDM administrators have access to exchange data

 |
- Intent to Modify transfer is done when objects are sent to a different site for modification
- New owner name is assigned during the export
- After the import in the target the objects is available for modification in the target
- All other objects are locked in the target for any changes and this eliminates accidental modification
|
|
 |
- Integrate is to compare and map the package contents with the target system
- Mapping is done using a mapping file or manually
- Both GUI and command line tools are available
|
 |
|
 |
- Conflicts arising during the integration are presented
- Conflicts are either overridden automatically or resolved by the user
- Integration stops whenever a non-overridable conflict is found
- Integration through GUI provides additional integration options
|
|
 |
- Fully integrated packages are imported
- Only selected products can be imported
- Ownership information updated for objects
- After import the target system is updated with the package contents
|
|
 |
- Scheduler is integrated with the NP application
- Option to schedule recursively on a regular interval (daily, weekly monthly etc.,)
- Scheduler client can be executed from any NP client machine
- Details of all the schedules and their statuses are available in relation database and can be viewed from any NP client
