ASI Data Model

Like all GE Digital APM modules, Asset Strategy Implementation consists of entity families, relationship families, and business rules. The ASI Overview page in ASI provides you with a custom view of ASI records that exist in the database. This page also helps facilitate the creation of new records.

When attempting to understand and make use of ASI functionality, it can be helpful to visualize the ASI data model. Because you should already be familiar with the concept of records and viewing records in Record Manager, as you attempt to get your bearings in ASI, it may be useful to remember that ASI is simply a customized view of individual records that work together to make up an Implementation Package.

All ASI implementation packages begin with an Implementation Package record. Each Implementation Package record will be linked to:

Zero or one SAP System records through the Has SAP System relationship.
At least one Asset Strategy record through the Implements Strategy relationship.
Zero or more Asset Strategy records through the Implements Secondary Strategy relationship.
One or more Action records through the Implements Actions relationship.
One or more other records through the Has Work Management Item relationship. These records store the details of work items that you want to implement, either in GE Digital APM or in an external SAP management system.

The following diagram illustrates how families are related to one another within the ASI data model. The boxes represent entity families, and the arrows represent relationship families. You can determine the predecessor and successor in each relationship by the direction of the arrow head. The box to which the arrow is pointing is the successor in the relationship.
