Question

Windchill-ERP integration

Hello everyone,

 

I am new to the Windchill community and looking for a bidirectional integration of an ERP-system, which is unfortunately not SAP or Oracle. Additionally I would like to integrate a product configurator, if possible. I would much appreciate, if someone could answer some of the following questions:

 

1. As of my understanding ESI can only be used for SAP or Oracle integration and the ERP-connector is only unidirectional. Dou you have any tips for a bidirectional integration of smaller systems like the ERP-system by infor?

2. Can I connect other systems like product configurators as long as they can communicate with XML-format messages?

3. Can Windchill handle ERP-typical classification- or effectivity-labels to deal with parts, which are only valid for a given time period?

4. Can Windchill handle genetic parts, which could be used in a genetic BOM (GBOM)?

 

Thanks for your answers and time in advance!
Kind regards

Florenz

Hi Florenz,

 

depending on where you're located, you might be interested by 4CAD Group's offer: https://www.4cadgroup.com/fr/4cad-link-2

Rather than been an point to point connection, it's an ESB that propose a lot of flexibility.

 

Thanks,

Florent
