Issue 1743:  Add relationship from document master directly to vault (pdm-rtf)
Source:  (, )
Nature:  Revision
Severity: 
Summary: Summary: B)	Add a relationship from a DocumentMaster directly to a Vault with the corresponding document 
 data. If the PdmEnablers are used for importing or exporting a partial model from one Pdm-
 System to another, there often will be only one file to import/export, and only in rare cases 
 complete document-hierarchies will be exposed. With a direct relationship from DocumentMaster 
 to a corresponding Vault there would be no need to build up the complete hierarchy for 
 documents (Master, Revision, Iteration, File, Vault) if you want to expose only one single file, 
 which could eliminate the creation of much overhead.

New desired features and changes to the existing version 
of the PdmEnabler-Specification 1.0.



To fulfill the needs of SAP we would like to see the following
additions and changes added to the 
PdmEnablers. We believe that the suggested changes will be useful not
only for the SAP but for many 
users currently dealing with the Enablers and will help to overcome
some shortcomings in the current 
release 1.0.
