ENOVIA Document Management (DCM) enables documents to be managed under a single repository for enterprise access, regardless of the actual location where the documents are stored. Document are stored in vaults (electronic storage systems), which can be anywhere in network. Standard library and lifecycle functions such as check-in/out, search, and versioning are provided to facilitate document sharing and distribution in the enterprise.
What makes VPM’s document management a powerful application is the fact that it is tightly integrated with product definition and change management applications. Documents can be managed independently or, in case of product structure management, in relation to the products or parts that the documents represent. For instance, releasing a part may also release the CAD representation of the part.
The content of documents that have been saved in ENOVIA can be viewed using the 2D/3D viewers and any available browser plug-ins to facilitate product knowledge sharing in the enterprise. CAD representations attached to a product structure, for instance, can be launched together to a 2D/3D viewing session, enabling design review without costly CAD licenses.
