Migrating packaging specifications to a document management

Packaging specifications are used by the customer to provide its suppliers of packaging materials (e.g. folded boxes, cut-outs, inserts, labels) with legally binding requirements regarding how the packaging is to be procured. Comprehensive specifications are managed and referenced to the SAP material master level in a document management system, at the level of packaging groups. The data received from the document management system about the linked specifications (status, version, start of validity) is included in the SAP ordering process. The software environment is validated.
