CadConnect 365
Digital transformation of bill of materials from CAD/PDM/PLM to Microsoft 365 Business Central
Explore a digital connection between your CAD/PDM/PLM system and Business Central.
Our advanced software enables the production engineer to seamlessly transform technical materials into materials ready for production. The process is streamlined and digital, eliminating the need for duplicate entries and reducing the risk of typing errors.
CadConnect creates sales quotes automatically.
