Multi-Site Collaboration lets users share and synchronize data in near real-time between Teamcenter sites across the entire enterprise. PLM XML lets users share Teamcenter data with third-party applications using the open PLM XML format. Bulk data migration tools let administrators exchange large volumes of data when populating test environments. Advanced Multi-Schema Exchanger lets user with Active Architect privileges create mapping rules that transform data when it is shared between Teamcenter sites that use different schemas.
