/24-7PressRelease/ - February 26, 2007 - According to Ricardo Talbot, Chief Science Officer with Elmo Solutions, "Elmo Link is the only software application of its kind that offers such a unique and reliable way to unify CAD/PLM and MRP/ERP databases, while supporting such a wide range of CAD platforms. Upon saving a drawing, component or assembly for the first time, and at any moment afterwards, the user may enter and/or edit CAD data using possible values taken "live" from the MRP/ERP application. Upon end-user confirmation, the data is updated in both the PLM/CAD document and the MRP database, thus ensuring perfect synchronization of both data sets, and completely eliminating redundant data entry."
Elmo Link can process and synchronize a wide range of data from either side, including, but not limited to:
Part/Component/Assembly data: When any component, subassembly or assembly is processed, Elmo Link determines where appropriate metadata is sent, and updates it accordingly
Bills Of Materials: When an assembly or subassembly is being edited, a new updated Bill of Materials is produced, and sent to the MRP/ERP system, thus ensuring immediate and permanent consistency between PLM/CAD and MRP/ERP metadata
Routing instructions: Editing a drawing of a component or assembly automatically brings a scrolling list that shows the current manufacturing steps for that component. The end-user may then add or remove steps, as well as alter the sequence of operations at will. When done, an updated routing table is sent to the MRP system, and a copy is automatically inserted into the drawing
