Understanding the New Content Modeling Framework
1 like928 views
The document details the Content Modeling Framework (CMF), which aims to create a data model that treats independent elements as a single entity for quality planning documents. It explores structures such as content types, element types, and property types, and describes how to display and edit document content through various views, currently focusing on a tabular format. Additionally, it outlines mechanisms for referencing and binding business objects to CMF documents to track discrepancies and ensure accurate mapping of document elements.

- 4. Content Modelling Framework (CMF) Overview Purpose ▫ Creates a data model of independent elements that are collectively treated as a single entity (CMF Document). ▫ Provides Viewers/Editors for creating and modifying Document content Used to define the Documents and Views used in Quality Planning (QMS R1) ▫ CMF contains a single Viewer/Editor for the tabular-based content of a Quality Document © 2016 Aras aras.com

- 8. Content Modeling Framework Content Type Purpose ▫ Defines a CMF Document How it works ▫ Identifies an existing Target ItemType, onto which a number of Relationships will be attached for Document Elements and their Properties ▫ Assigns one or more Views for displaying/editing Document content © 2014 Aras aras.com
- 9. Content Modeling Framework Element Type Purpose ▫ Define the Objects of a CMF Document How it works ▫ Similar in function to an ItemType Implemented as Null Relation on Target ItemType ▫ Can be linked to a single ‘parent’ Document Element Forms Element hierarchy parent_ref_id links to Element ▫ Can be bound to a single ‘Business Object’ (Bus. Obj.) © 2014 Aras aras.com
- 10. Content Modeling Framework Property Type Purpose ▫ Defines properties for a Document Element How it works ▫ Similar to a Property ItemType Implemented as Null Relation on Target ItemType element_ref_id links to Element Types: ▫ Boolean, Date Time, Double, Integer, String, Text, File, Image, List ▫ Can be bound to a single Bus. Obj. Property ▫ Can specify a Method for automatic value calculation or style setting © 2014 Aras aras.com
- 11. Content Modeling Framework View – Column configuration Purpose ▫ Configure Header, Cell Styles ▫ Set Cell Editor How it works ▫ Header and Cells styling by cmf_Style ▫ Editors Property default List Combo List © 2016 Aras aras.com List Editor Default Property Editor Combo List
- 12. Content Modeling Framework Item (Business Object) References / Binding Purpose ▫ Allows CMF Documents to have an indirect association with other PLM Items (Business Objects) Document Element becomes a ‘proxy’ to the Bus. Obj. How it works ▫ ‘Soft Link’ between CMF Document Item and Business Object Relationship will not show in ‘Where-Used’ CMF Doc. Item and Bus. Obj. can be removed w/o restriction ▫ Changes to Business Object Properties can be identified/flagged in Editor © 2016 Aras aras.com

Content Modeling Framework Item (Business Object) References / Binding Referenced Type: ItemType to map to Tracking: How to handle discrepancies in content ▫ Show, Ignore Resolution: Mapped Item Instance to check ▫ As Saved, Current New Element: Reference Options ▫ Pick, Create, Both Reference Required: Can there be ‘unmapped’ Document Elements? © 2016 Aras aras.com

- 16. Content Modeling Framework Structure Mapping Purpose: ▫ Provide a mechanism to map, and track, the structure of Document Elements in a CMF Document to a structure of referenced Business Objects Will be used in QP to map Quality Documents to Mfg Process Plans How it works: ▫ Methods return a list of Item instances that are associated with a given bound Document Element Identifies order (when needed) © 2016 Aras aras.com

Structure Mapping Example Quality Planning -> MPP QP - Process Quality Document ▫ Mapped to Process Plan ▫ Requires PQB Binding application QP – Operation ▫ Mapped to MPP Operation ▫ Order is tracked QP – Tool ▫ Mapped MPP Tool ▫ Order is not tracked © 2016 Aras aras.com Process Quality Document Operation Tool Process Plan MPP Operation Op.

- 18. Content Modeling Framework Structure Mapping Candidate Document Element: ▫ A Document Element that refers to a Business Object in a bound structure that has not been accepted into a document Flagged Document Element: ▫ A Document Element that does not represent its mapped structure either because: It is out of place based on ordering It doesn’t refer to a referenced Business Object that exists in its parent’s hierarchy © 2016 Aras aras.com
