Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a BOM structure screening method based on product life cycle status, belonging to the technical field of complex technical status business screening and application management of product structure management. Background Art

[0002] In view of the R&D characteristics of complex equipment development products with multiple component states, cross-departmental collaborative applications, and effective time-varying diversity, there are often situations in which different versions and product component structures of different life cycle states are viewed and applied during product development. If users always see a conditional product component structure, it often leads to the inability to use data that conforms to the actual business production status during product process planning and product generation stages, resulting in inconsistency in the application of product BOM structure data.

[0003] Therefore, the present invention proposes a BOM structure screening method based on product life cycle status to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention discloses a BOM structure screening method based on product life cycle status, and its specific technical solution is as follows: A BOM structure screening method based on product life cycle status, characterized by comprising the following steps: Step 1: Create product parts in the product lifecycle management system PLM according to the product development process and assign basic information to the product parts. The basic information includes code, name, version, view and lifecycle status. Each version of the product part has its own lifecycle status. Step 2: Select the product component created in step 1. In its structure tab, create a subcomponent or select a subcomponent in the system as its subcomponent. Build a multi-layer structure relationship between the product component and its subcomponents, that is, build the product BOM structure; and maintain the product BOM structure attributes, which include quantity, unit, tracking code, and reference number; Step 3: Add the product parts created in step 1 to the product BOM structure constructed in step 2, and display the latest version selected according to the current product BOM structure screening rules; Step 4: Adjust the life cycle status of the sub-level component version data in the product BOM structure and upgrade the product components; Step 5: Based on the product BOM structure filter, define the filter conditions in combination; Step 6: Each piece of data in the BOM structure is applied one by one based on the screening conditions, and the BOM structure that meets the business requirements is screened out layer by layer; Step 7: Based on the structural filtering conditions defined by the BOM structure filter, place the product components that meet the filtering conditions at the top level, save them, and reapply them.

[0005] Furthermore, the process of step 1 is specifically as follows: select a product component, enter the product component and select the folder where the product data is stored, click Create Product Component, fill in the number, name and view attribute information of the new product component, and after creation, assign the product component version and life cycle template, assign the product component version number and life cycle status values, and the product component is successfully created.

[0006] Furthermore, the process of step 2 is specifically as follows: open the structure tab in the product component, open the structure page, add existing components or add new components in the structure page, so as to build the product component structure; under the "Use" tab, maintain the quantity of the corresponding child components under the parent component.

[0007] Furthermore, the process of step 3 is specifically as follows: add the newly created product component in step 1 to the BOM structure constructed in step 2, and the display rule of the BOM structure is the default latest rule, that is, the latest versions of all sub-level product components in the current product BOM structure will be displayed in the product BOM structure.

[0008] Furthermore, the process of step 4 is specifically as follows: for sub-level components, the business will review the component number, name, and status data based on the review process, and change the value of the life cycle status. At the same time, after the business data is reviewed, the status will change. At this time, click the revision button for the product sub-level component to generate a new component version, and re-create the initial rules for obtaining the life cycle value based on the component to obtain the life cycle template value.

[0009] Furthermore, the process of step 5 is specifically as follows: open the filter management page, default the current structure filtering rule to the latest, and all sub-level components in the current product BOM structure are the latest sub-level components. At this time, the filtering conditions are set to: first, "the latest EBOM management has been released", and second, "the latest EBOM management is in progress".

[0010] Furthermore, the "first" and "second" of the screening conditions in step 5 support moving up or down and exchanging positions, thereby affecting the application of the filter.

[0011] Furthermore, the process of step 6 is specifically as follows: click Apply, and each data of the product BOM structure will be matched one by one and layer by layer to the first filtering condition of the filter, that is, the first "latest EBOM management has been released" in the filtering condition. If the current component version meets the requirement, the current version will be retained. If the current version does not meet the first filtering condition, then find out whether the current version meets the second filtering condition, that is, the second "latest EBOM management in progress" in the filtering condition; if the latest version does not meet the first filtering condition and the second filtering condition, then find out whether the previous version meets the first filtering condition and the second filtering condition, until the most initial version; if all versions do not meet all filtering conditions, only the main object information of the component is displayed, that is, only the number and name information are displayed.

[0012] Furthermore, the process of step 7 is specifically as follows: for the currently filtered BOM structure, click Save Filter and check Share. When other users open the BOM top-level structure, the filtering condition will be quickly applied to filter the current BOM page into a BOM structure with a specific life cycle state required by the business.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The present invention satisfies different users to define the life cycle states they need to view based on configurable filtering conditions, thereby displaying the BOM component structure of products for actual application, thereby ensuring that the product BOM structure for design, process, and manufacturing can be quickly customized, filtered, and viewed.

[0021] The present invention is further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the BOM structure screening method based on the product life cycle status of the present invention is a maturity management mode based on configurable business rules, which configures and defines the product maturity name, rules, and conversion mechanism. Under the maturity rules, the product maturity name sequence and process and manual conversion logic are built-in, and the mapping relationship between maturity rules and product data objects is established. A maturity name library, a maturity rule library, a maturity rule and object enable / disable, and a maturity scenario application management mechanism are constructed, and finally a parallel collaborative working mode of product design and process based on the product maturity management model is realized. The specific process is as follows: Step 1: Select a product part in the product lifecycle management system PLM, enter the product part, select the folder, click New Product Part, and fill in the product part related number, name, and view attribute information, such as Figure 1 After the creation is completed, the business object version number and life cycle status value are assigned based on the version and life cycle template assigned to the product component by the platform, and the component is created successfully.

[0023] Step 2: Open the component structure tab in the product component and open the structure page as shown in the figure. Figure 2 , add existing components or add new components to the page to build the product structure. Then use the tabs to adjust the number of subcomponents.

[0024] Step 3: Add the component object to the component structure. The component structure is the default "latest" rule, such as Figure 3 , that is, the latest version of the current object will be displayed in the structure.

[0025] Step 4: For the substructure of the component, the business will review the business data object based on the review process, and change the value of the lifecycle status to the "released" status. At the same time, after the process completes the review of the business object, the component data in the structure will be changed. At this time, the business data object will be revised, a new component version will be generated, and the lifecycle template value "in progress" will be obtained again based on the initial rules.

[0026] Step 5: Open the filter management, and you can see that the current structure filter rule is "latest" by default. Figure 5 , at this time, set the filter conditions to: first "latest EBOM management has been released", second "latest EBOM management is in progress" Step 6: Click Apply, and each piece of data in the component structure will match the preferred condition of the filter one by one and layer by layer. At this time, all "released" product BOM structure data will be displayed in the system, and the new version of the "working" component under revision will display the data of its previous "released" version; if these two filtering conditions support switching positions up and down, the "working" version of the component of the current revision will be displayed, but the previous version of the component is the last version, that is, the initial version, and the status is "released", so it is also considered to be a version that meets the filtering conditions, and it will be displayed in the same way.

[0027] Step 7: For the conditions of the currently filtered BOM structure, click Save Filter, name it "Published Filter", check Share, and then when you open the BOM top-level structure again, this filter condition will be quickly applied to filter the current BOM page into the BOM structure of the specific life cycle status required by the business.

[0028] The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the contents in the specification. Based on the ideal embodiment of the present invention and the above description, relevant personnel can make various changes and modifications without departing from the scope of the technical idea of ​​the present invention.
