How is metadata managed between the PLM and CATIA?
How is metadata managed between the PLM and CATIA? A CAD document is made up of data, metadata. Some of this comes from CATIA such as the geometry, mass and material. Some of it comes from the PLM, Design code and RPG. Two pieces of metadata can be changed in both the PLM and CATIA,

How to install the PLM CERN MULTICAD Connectors?
How to install the PLM CERN MULTICAD Connectors? The official CAD tool at CERN for 3D design is CATIA V5. However, the PLM can be used with AutoCAD, BricsCAD, Inventor and REVIT by installing the relevant connector. Please note there is no support at CERN for the use of these applications, only the installation and

How to reorder a BOM?
How to reorder a BOM? The order of the BOM is determined by the CATIA tree. The BOM is built based on the positions and quantities in the CATIA tree, using a top-down approach. Please note: There are manual ways to override the CATIA positions & quantities, for further information on this see the FAQ
