How in the world can I get sfc working in simatic manager - is it a additional installation - is it a license ting- is it a purchase and get download thing? I am only able to do the base stuff (fbd,ll,ob,scl)
installed verson: Step 7 V5.6 btw
So it looks like this on my side:
2. If I am able working with sfc is it possible exporting and importing sfcs? Did anyone of you have some experience regarding this?
Also it would be interesting if there is some sdk/api thing automating stuff in simatic manager in regards of sfc import or others.

S7-300 PLCs have been a cornerstone of industrial automation for many years, but as technology advances, these trusted workhorses will become obsolete starting in October 2023. To keep your automation systems up to date and leverage the latest capabilities, it's essential to migrate to modern PLC platforms like the S7-1500.
The migration process becomes crucial as it allows you to harness the benefits of improved performance, increased functionality, and future-proofing your automation systems. The S7-1500 series offers enhanced capabilities, including faster processing speeds, improved diagnostics, and a more extensive range of communication options. By transitioning your existing S7-300 project to an S7-1500, you can ensure the longevity and efficiency of your industrial automation systems.
In this tutorial, you learned how to migrate an existing S7-300 project in SIMATIC Manager to a cutting-edge S7-1500 PLC using the TIA Portal. We covered the key steps of this migration process, including archiving the project, importing it into TIA Portal, replacing the CPU model, and manually adding missing signal modules to ensure a seamless transition. By following these steps, you can successfully modernize your industrial automation systems, harnessing the enhanced capabilities and features of the S7-1500 series.
The importance of migrating old PLC systems cannot be overstated. As technology evolves, legacy PLCs, like the S7-300, face challenges such as diminishing support, limited spare parts availability, and reduced compatibility with modern communication protocols. Upgrading to newer PLC models, such as the S7-1500, not only ensures the longevity and reliability of your automation systems but also unlocks a range of benefits, including increased processing power, improved diagnostics, and enhanced connectivity options. Moreover, it positions your industrial processes for future advancements, making your operations more agile and adaptable to changing industrial requirements.
This video provides a step-by-step example of how to upgrade a license using the Automation License Manager, which manages all of the software licenses for TIA Portal. The ability to upgrade a license provides the user with the ability to gain additional Siemens automation software capabilities at minimal cost.
Margin Optimization is an early warning system that uses historical data and AI models to alert project managers of risks to planned margins and makes recommendation for how to mitigate risks and optimize percentage margin value.
To enable its emerging lines of business to make informed business decisions and efficiently drive growth, Siemens decided to launch a next-gen service automation (NGSA) program. As part of that, it needed a PSA platform that supports all regions and makes it possible to harmonize operations globally on a standard set of business processes.
By orchestrating harmonized processes across its multiple services lines, Siemens Digital Industries Software empowered its project managers to efficiently craft large customer engagements that are staffed and profitable. With better forward-looking views of business via PS Cloud, managers can better plan capacity and improve utilization across over 5,000 projects. The company has already expanded billable utilization because of PS Cloud, achieving its highest rate in seven years.
Silos between engineering and business have existed in enterprises for decades. This new partnership will help customers to break down these siloes so manufacturers, product design teams and service managers have the information needed to quickly create and manage customer-centric product and service offerings.
Within baggage handling systems, ground handling is an area where processes are still largely carried out manually. Unloading baggage from flight containers, in particular, is an extremely physically demanding operation where automation can add great value - both to the workforce and to ground handling.
