Microsoft Dynamics 365
Business Central integration

CADTALK ERP is a completely off-the-shelf, intelligent, bi-directional integration between your CAD, PDM, or PLM and Microsoft Business Central. CADTALK ERP reads data from any CAD, PDM, or PLM application transforming the engineering bill of materials (eBOM) into manufacturing bills of material (MBOM).

As a Microsoft Development Partner, CADTALK ERP supports many areas in Microsoft Dynamics Business Central including Items, Production BOMS, BOM Lines, Routings and much more. The integration creates new and updates existing Business Central Items, Production BOMS, and Routings, while identifying and tracking all changes and revisions between engineering and manufacturing.

Get from design to production faster

CADTALK writes released designs straight into Business Central as item cards, production BOMs, assembly BOMs and routings, so no one re-keys them. Engineers stay on design work, and costing starts as soon as the routing lands.

We were able to get through it within a couple of weeks

Your team worked very quickly to get us access to those custom fields and get them set up. We were able to get through it within a couple of weeks. It was pretty fast! That was cool to find out in that moment, yes, we did choose to work with the right people on this process.

The initial reaction was how easy CADTALK was to use

The initial reaction was how easy [CADTALK] was to use. How easy it was just to load in a drawing… Very few settings when you’re uploading something because you can configure it so that it works out what it needs to be and does all the correct combinations.
