PLM应用是一个或多个PLM核心功能的集合体，提供一套可满足产品生命周期具体需求的功能，它代表了PLM解决方案的某一视图。随着PLM在企业的推广应用，许多不同的PLM使能应用被开发出来，如配置管理、工程变更管理、文档管理等，现在都已成为PLM的标准功能。这些应用缩短了PLM的实施时间，并将许多成功的实施经验融合在这些应用中。典型的PLM应用有： 

PLM应用范围一：变更管理（Change/Revision Management）

使数据的修订过程可以被跟踪和管理，它建立在PLM核心功能之上，提供一个打包的方案来管理变更请求、变更通知、变更策略，最后到变更的执行和跟踪等一整套方案。

PLM应用范围二：配置管理（Configuration Management）

建立在产品结构管理功能之上，它使产品配置信息可以被创建、记录和修改，允许产品按照特殊要求被建造，记录某个变形被使用来形成产品的结构。同时，也为产品周期中不同领域提供不同的产品结构表示。

PLM应用范围三：工作台（Console/Dashboard）

将完成特定任务必须的所有功能和工具集成到一个界面下，使最终用户可以在一个统一的环境中完成诸如设计协同、数据样机、设计评阅和仿真等工作。

PLM应用范围四：文档管理（Document Management）

提供图档、文档、实体模型安全存取、版本发布、自动迁移、归档、签审过程中的格式转换、浏览、圈阅和标注，以及全文检索、打印、邮戳管理、网络发布等一套完整的管理方案，并提供多语言和多媒体的支持。

What are the application areas of PLM?

A PLM application is a collection of one or more PLM core functions that provide a set of functions that meet the specific requirements of the product lifecycle and represent a view of the PLM solution. With the spread of PLM in the enterprise, many different PLM enabled applications have been developed, such as configuration management, engineering change management, document management, etc., and are now standard features of PLM. These applications shorten the implementation time of PLM and incorporate many successful implementation lessons into these applications. Typical PLM applications are: Digital transformation network zhzxw.cn

PLM Application Scope 1: Change/Revision Management

Data revision process can be tracked and managed, it builds on the core capabilities of PLM, providing a package of solutions to manage change requests, change notifications, change policies, and finally change execution and tracking. Digital transformation network zhzxw.cn

PLM Application Area 2: Configuration Management

Built on top of the product structure management function, it enables product configuration information to be created, recorded and modified, allowing products to be built according to special requirements, recording a deformation used to form the structure of the product. At the same time, it also provides different product structure representations for different areas of the product cycle.

PLM application Scope 3: Workbench (Console/Dashboard)

Integrating all the functions and tools necessary to complete a specific task under one interface enables end users to perform tasks such as design collaboration, data prototyping, design review, and simulation in a unified environment. Digital transformation network zhzxw.cn

PLM Application Area 4: Document Management

Provide a complete set of management solutions such as safe access, version release, automatic migration, archiving, format conversion, browsing, circling and marking in the process of signing and approval, as well as full-text retrieval, printing, postmark management, and network release, and provide multi-language and multimedia support.
