# Request Open Interface Overview

The open interface supports request creation. This open interface enables integration with non-PPM products. Relevant information from these products can be used to generate the appropriate request using the open interface. The open interface can also be used as a conversion mechanism to convert data from a legacy system into Demand Management during initial implementation.

Note: The Request Open Interface cannot be used to update existing requests in the PPM.

The synchronization process involves importing request attributes to the following interface tables:

- KCRT_REQUESTS_INT

- KCRT_REQUEST_DETAILS_INT

- KCRT_REQ_HEADER_DETAILS_INT

- KCRT_TABLE_ENTRIES_INT

The following field group interface tables may also be needed:

- KCRT_FG_DEMAND_SCHEDULE_INT

- KCRT_FG_MASTER_PROJ_REF_INT

- KCRT_FG_PFM_ASSET_INT

- KCRT_FG_PFM_PROJECT_INT

- KCRT_FG_PFM_PROPOSAL_INT

- KCRT_FG_PROG_ISSUE_INT

- KCRT_FG_PROG_REFERENCE_INT

- KCRT_FG_PROG_RESOURCE_REQ_INT

- KCRT_FG_PROG_ISSUE_INT

- KCRT_FG_PROJ_RISK_INT

- KCRT_FG_PROJ_SCOPE_CHANGE_INT

- KCRT_FG_SLA_INT

- KCRT_FG_WORK_ITEMS_INT

These interface tables are described in Open Interface Data Models. With the exception of the field group interface tables, the columns that can be used when importing requests are detailed in the appropriate step within this section.

The following figure displays the relationships between the various Request Open Interface tables. Note that the placeholder (<NAME>) represents any of the field group interface tables.
