Data Models Description
Taxonomy Data Model
  • With this model, the system aligns the ETIM based taxonomies and classifications into the PIM system for the entity data.
    Example: Considering ETIM 9.0 as version, the classifications associated with ETIM 9.0 are available in the application. You can validate the classifications available in the system in accordance with the model.

    For more information on configurations for the taxonomy model, see section Data Model Configurations.

  • The system provides you an option to select a dummy class code, when you do not find a suitable ETIM Class for a Part entity. For example, EC000000-Dummy Class for ETIM 8.0 Classification.

    The ETIM classifications available in the system can be mapped to other classifications based on the business needs.
