Integrate and Sync your CAD Data with Epicor CADLink
CADLink allows engineers to create Epicor Part Master and BOM records identical to engineering CAD data with the click of a button. The direct integration reduces manual data entry and clerical errors. Production benefits from drawing information identical to work order documentation.
Increase the speed of data flow from sales to engineering, procurement, and manufacturing. Streamlining the entire product development process by integrating your CAD system and your Epicor ERP solution gives you the edge in the competitive market. This eliminates all the burdens you face from having disparate systems, allowing engineers to focus on the designs and innovation.
Keeping your Epicor engineering data accurate and synchronized with your engineering drawings and models is critical.
With CADLink, you will see significant improvements in production speed, on-time shipments, and accuracy of Epicor engineering data with reductions in engineering cost, scrapped parts, and shop floor confusions.
Green rows represent new parts that will be created in your Part Master.
Yellow fields highlight data discrepancy between CAD and Epicor 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 Epicor BOM.
The Extended Field Mapping Module (EFMM) is an optional module available to our Epicor CADLink customers. The EFMM includes the ability to create addtional mappings to standard and user defined fields found within the “Part” or the “PartMtl” tables, as well as the “JobMtl” and “QuoteMtl” tables if the customer has purchased the CADLink Job BOM or Quote BOM modules. Users can also use this module to add custom logic to modify part, material and operation information.
CADLink Auto Part Numbering module enables you to automatically assign new part numbers to new parts that do not have an existing record in Epicor. The module allows you to set a template formula from which CADLink will pull from and generate new part numbers upon saving into Epicor.Â
CADLink Job BOM creates and updates Epicor Job BOM directly from your CAD files. It compares the CAD BOM to a specific Job BOM inside Epicor.
CADLink Quote BOM creates and updates Epicor ERP Quote BOM directly from your CAD files. It compares CAD BOM to a specific Quote BOM in Epicor.
Powerful Visual Interface
Powerful Visual Interface
Engineers are visual people. That is why Epicor CADLink offers a highly visual and intuitive interface to display BOM changes and data discrepancies.
Discrepancy and Error Notification
Discrepancy and Error Notification
Resolve discrepancies in the CADLink interface and automatically update both your CAD files and Epicor data. CADLink checks for critical errors and notifies the user before saving.
