IQS Question Blank Title 90177

To my fellow IQS users:

I have a question – which may be resolved by a business process and not necessarily by the applications (IQS or Vantage). We'd like to use the Product/Engineering Change Request process on IQS as the primary management tool, but we have questions about integrating it with Vantage.
1. From IQS to Vantage: for this process, there is no integration currently.
2. From Vantage to IQS: Part Revision changes are transmitted as Open items in the Product Change Request queue.

Questions:
1. Should we go ahead and manage the process in IQS and perform any Vantage changes independently (and perhaps turn off the Part Revision statement in the BPM)? Or
2. Should we come up with a process where we stop in IQS just prior to closing the Product Change Request, move to Vantage and perform the changes there, and let the Part Revision transaction flow back to IQS – in other words, try to use this piece of the integration? Or
3. Some other process?

How are you managing this process?

Thanks in advance!
