CAD Connector - CAD/ERP integration for efficient production planning¶
The CAD Connector application was designed for manufacturing companies that plan their production based on data provided by design and engineering teams in the form of a Bill of Materials (BOM). The main purpose of the CAD Connector application is to integrate any CAD/PDM/PLM environment with the ERP system - Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The application enables the processing of the imported product structure (design BOM) and furthermore automates standard tasks, preparing data for production purposes.
