  • Custom point integrations that are time-consuming and hard to support long-term
  • Multiple environments (DEV/QA/PROD) causing repeated configuration and release risk
  • Difficulty establishing consistent traceability/auditability for transactions
  • Operational delays due to missing runbooks and inconsistent error handling

 How the PDI  SAP–HxGN SDx Library works  

PDI Solution: SAP EAM / SAP PM – HxGN SDx Library 

PDI’s Packaged Library, powered by Informatica IDMC CAI, triggers on SAP maintenance events (notification/work order create/update), queries HxGN SDx for relevant asset and engineering content based on equipment/functional location/tag relationships and document attributes, and links curated results back into SAP. The solution includes standardized traceability/auditability/evidence logging (audit store customer-approved; Snowflake optional) plus repeatable deployment runbooks to promote consistently across environments.  

Key Features: 

  • CAI SAP Event Router: Standard entry for SAP maintenance triggers

  • SDx Discovery: Tag/equipment-based discovery of documents + metadata retrieval

  • SAP Link-Back: Attach/link curated SDx results to SAP notifications/orders (configurable)

  • Integration Audit Logger: Correlation IDs + event traces (Snowflake optional)

  • Standard REST Utility: Unified error handling, retries, throttling, and idempotency patterns

  • Repeatable Packaging: Delivered as deployable package (e.g., .car / repo) with environment mapping
