SAP APIs
To complete Windchill ESI functions such as Create Part, Change BOM, Windchill ESI needs to invoke multiple SAP APIs in a predetermined sequence. The following table lists these APIs categorized by Windchill ESI functions. Refer to SAP API Structures for details on the API structures.

Control Characteristic Mapping
The following tables lists the mapping for control characteristics:
Windchill
SAP (QS21) Master Inspection Characteristics (MIC)
Details
CC Number
MIC Number
CC Name
MIC Name
Transformed to Name – Plant
Because Name must be unique for each plant.
CC Description
Short text
Severity
Not mapped
Version
Note mapped
Distribution Target /Plant
Plant
Model Item Reference
Qualitative or Quantitative selection
Based on the Model Item Type/subtype and other attributes, Windchill-MPMLink decides if the CC is Qualitative or Quantitative.
Model Item Reference / Target Value
Target Value indicator and Target Value
Model Item Reference / Upper Target Value
Upper Specification Limit indicator and Upper Limit
Model Item Reference / Lower Target Value
Lower Specification indicator and Lower Limit
Model Item Reference / No Of Decimal places
Decimal places
Windchill-MPMLink API calculate programmatically based on the certain attributes
Model Item Reference / Unit of Measurement
Msmt Unit
The following tables lists the mapping for control characteristics associations with parts:
Windchill
SAP (QS61 : Material Specification)
Details
Part Number
Material Number
CC Number
MIC Number
Distribution Target/Plant
Plant
* 
In SAP the association is created as a reference association. This means all modifications are reflected from the actual master data at the MIC.
The following tables lists the mapping for control characteristics associations with a process plan operations:
Windchill to Windchill MPMLink Link for Operation to Control Characteristic Consumption
SAP (CA02 : Inspection Characteristics)
Details
CC Number
MIC Number, MIC Description and other quantitative values from Model Item referenced attributes like Target Value, Upper Limit, Lower Limit are mapped with this link as well.
