Shortfacts - December 2019 / January 2020

No monthly SAP news should be disregarded. The Short Facts are dedicated to smaller news items as well as seemingly more or less important statements from the community. This is the place for SAP-specific press releases that otherwise tend to be overlooked.

PLM with S/4 Hana

Technical companies that use CAD desktop and SAP PLM at the same time may soon have a problem: The previous PLM component CAD desktop (CDESK) will only be supported by the current SAP ERP and will be replaced by 2025.

With S/4 Hana, it is no longer available. Since the changeover to the new product generation is imminent for all SAP user companies, they should already be fundamentally thinking about a realignment of their PLM strategy.

A system for enterprise resource planning and one for managing product creation across the entire lifecycle are two different things and should remain so in the future. Procad has therefore improved the integration of its PLM platform Pro.file so that engineering companies are prepared for the upcoming S/4 migration.

Anyone who relies on Pro.file here also receives an integrated DMStec at the same time. Because PLM does not work without the linking of all product-relevant information (including that from documents). When switching from CDESK to Pro.file, all you have to do later during the migration to S/4 Hana is flip the integration switch.
