[RP_10605553]

Is it possible to publish Options and Variants i.e. optionality information in Windchill using ERP connector or ESI w/Tibco to SAP.

1) What kind of OV objects/rules are supported with ERP Connector or ESI Tibco integration options for WC SaaS on Azure
2) What are current OV objects/rules that are not supported, be specific
3) Is it generic xml file response generated with ERP connector or ESI Tibco
4) Can the XML response directly consume to SAP without any translation
5) What a big effort of the customization to translate the XML response to SAP VC construct with ERP Connector or  ESI Tibco
6) Does OV support for Plant View BOMs
7) Cost of Tibco license and does PTC support any issues with TIBCO middleware.
😎 Any performance baselines for publish responses through TIBCO

Some information

The objects / data supported can be found in Help here
Windchill ESI features

There are no industry wide standards on platform logic.  The XML is output structured as AP242 nouns so that they can be transformed into proprietary formats.  There would need to be some layer to transform the data

The response does not use the Tibco functionality OOTB -
