Import AML

Use the EGP_ITEM_RELATIONSHIPS_INTF tab to organize AML data for import. Even if you enter the revision, it’s important to enter the correct Start Date Active and End Date Active for data to appear correctly in Product Development.

We recommend that you migrate the AML pertaining to the latest revision only. If you attempt to import the AML from several revisions, you will need to import multiple batches as the AML of two different revisions can’t be imported in a single batch.

Example AML Data:

Item Number Trading Partner Item Number Trading Partner Number Revision Start Date End Date
Laptop 123 FC123 1000009 Pre 1901/05/01 12:00:00 AM 2016/01/01 12:00:00 AM
Laptop 123 L123 1000015 A 2016/01/01 12:00:00 AM NA
Laptop 123 S123 1000023 B 2017/01/01 12:00:00 AM NA
  • In the case of Manufacturing Change Order (change order without revision control in Product Development) on revision A, create AMLs where the Start Date Active is between 2016/01/01 and 2017/01/01.
  • For the Start Date Active, enter the same date as the Revision Effectivity Date.
  • For the End Date Active, enter the Effectivity Date of the revision that removed the part.
  • For Trading Partner Number, enter the Registry ID of the manufacturer.
Delete AML through Import
  • You can delete an AML through import using the Delete transaction type in the change order context.
  • You can also add the item to a change order using the import batch option and specify an end date for the AML.
The deletion of AML is recorded in the redline summary.
