Description

With over 15 years of experience in CAD-ERP integration, QBuild’s CADLink is a turnkey system designed to tightly connect our customer CAD/PDM/PLM design information to Rootstock ERP. CADLink uses a real-time, bidirectional link to pull and push your BOM product data in a single click. Create items, draw comparisons, highlight discrepancies, and change two different data sets in one interface and in minutes! Reduce costly mistakes, eliminate manual entry, and synchronize your CAD/PDM/PLM and Rootstock Bill of Materials (BOM) in an organized and controlled way. CADLink launches right out of CAD/PDM/PLM system and allows Design Engineers to regain lead time and do what they do best...design!

Integrate & Sync CAD BOM Data Directly To Rootstock In One Easy Interface
CADLink lets your engineers create Assembly Items with manufacturing BOM structure and Inventory Items in Rootstock that are identical to your CAD models. Just one click away. If you’re looking for a SOLIDWORKS Rootstock Integration, no matter which CAD, PDM, or PLM System you use, CADLink can be the link between your design data and Rootstock.

Features

COLOR CODED CHANGES

Benefit from a color coding system inside your BOM grid to quickly see the results of the live comparison and the required tasks to save into Rootstock.

DISCREPANCY & ERROR NOTIFICATION

Resolve discrepancies from the interface and automatically update your CAD BOM and Rootstock BOM data. CADLink has an important feature that validates your item and BOMs and notifies the engineer of any critical or costly errors before saving them to ERP.

DIRECT WINDOW INTO ROOTSTOCK DATA

Perform a live search in your Item List and insert any non-CAD modelled items to your bill of materials. Create a complete BOM for your shop floor, not just what your engineers modelled!

POWERFUL VISUAL INTERFACE

Engineers are visual people. That is why CADLink offers a highly visual and intuitive interface to display BOM changes and data discrepancies.
