Synchronize BOM data with one click.

CADLink for Infor LX allows Engineers to create Item Master Records and perform BOM imports directly to Infor LX and back to CAD. It is compatible with all CAD software to guarantee identical Engineering data with your shop floor.

Infor LX CADLink Interface

Color Coded BOM Discrepancies

Green Rows represent new parts that will be created in your Item Master.

Yellow fields highlight a field level discrepancy between CAD and Infor LX such as description or quantity.

Gray Rows represent parts to be removed from your BOM.

Blue Rows highlight items that are not in CAD but are needed in the Infor LX BOM.

Red Fields highlight the fields where there is a critical error that must be resolved.

ADDITIONAL Modules

Extended Field Mapping Module

The Extended Field Mapping Module allow users to map to any field found within certain tables in Infor LX. CADLink Users are also able to use the Field Mapping Module to map various User Defined Fields (UDFs) existing in those tables.

Custom Logic Module

CADLink’s Custom Logic Module allows a user to develop their own rules to set fields/values using C# code. This module assists your engineers by automatically entering data that can be defined by rulesets, saving time and making processes more efficient.

File Attachments

Infor LX CADLink allows users to configure CADLink to be able to automatically pull in files with a certain extension based off the CAD file that CADLink is being run off of. The files may be added to Item Notes, Job Material Notes or Job Route Notes in Infor LX.

Live Data Comparison

Live comparison lets you visually review BOM changes before committing to save.

Create Item and BOM records identical to your drawings in one click.

Direct CAD Integration

Launch directly from the CAD suite of your choice. Interface for indented multi-level Bill of Materials and thumbnail preview image of the CAD part lets you know what you are looking at.

Bi-Directional Connection

Bi-directional data push keeps CAD and Infor engineering data synchronized and up-to-date. Keep critical information such as BOM quantity and material selection consistent throughout your CAD and ERP systems.

Always Compatible

Our partnerships on the CAD and ERP side enable us to always help you connect your software packages. Whether you’re using Infor LX on premise, or exploring the latest CAD technology available from your provider, QBuild has the resources!

 

Integrations for all the leading mechanical CAD (such as SolidWorks, CREO/Pro-E, Inventor, etc.) and electrical CAD (Altium, DxDesigner, PADS, AutoCAD Electrical, etc.) packages are available to you.

Keeping your Infor LX engineering data accurate and synchronized with your engineering drawings and models is critical to the growth and success of your business.

With Infor LX CADLink, you will see significant improvements in production speed, on-time shipments, and accuracy of LX engineering data with reductions in engineering cost, scrapped parts, and shop floor confusions.

THE DIRECT INTEGRATION ELIMINATES MANUAL DATA ENTRY AND CLERICAL ERRORS.

Production and purchasing and other downstream ERP users benefit from accurate drawing information identical to work order documentation. A real-time, direct, two-way link between your CAD and your Infor ERP means no more exporting or importing data files.

INCREASE THE SPEED OF DATA FLOW FROM SALES TO ENGINEERING, PROCUREMENT, AND MANUFACTURING.

Streamlining the entire product development process by integrating your CAD systems (such as SOLIDWORKS, AutoCAD, CREO, Altium, DxDesigner, CATIA, etc.) and your ERP solution gives you the edge in the competitive market. Infor LX CADLink will free up your engineering staff to do more engineering and reduce your engineering costs. The less time they spend inputting data across multiple platforms, the more time they can invest on projects and designs.
