Elmo Solutions, the leader in CAD-ERP data integration, is pleased to announce that Kimberley Kampers, an Agni Link reference customer based in Ballina, NSW, Australia, has been awarded the prestigious Managing Automation’s Progressive Manufacturing Awards for its implementation of Agni Link’s live, bi­di­rectional CAD-ERP data integration system for Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

Cudos to our friend Bruce Loxton and his excellent team’s dedication to innovation and excellence.

Agni Link is a companion application to SolidWorks, AutoCAD or Autodesk Inventor that provides real-time, bidirectional integration with Microsoft Dynamics.  It is the only application of its kind that offers a unique and reliable way to integrate CAD and Microsoft Dynamics data, automatically resolving discrepancies, and allowing editing of CAD data using possible values obtained “live” from Microsoft Dynamics, thus ensuring perfect synchronization of both data sets and completely eliminating redundant data entry as well as eliminating costly errors.

Agni Link can process and synchronize a wide range of product data from either environment, including:

• Bills of Materials (BoMs)
• Estimating
• Sales Quotes
• Business Process Management (BPM) data
• Work Orders
• Production Orders
• Production Schedules
• Product Catalogs
• Product Configurations
• Parts Catalogs
• Technical Documentation
• Supply Chain Data
• Document Management
• CRM data

Yielding high Return on Investment, Agni Link typically pays for itself in 60-90 days in ETO-intensive environments. Agni Link addresses the needs of SolidWorks and Microsoft Dynamics users sharing product data throughout the enterprise.  Designed with the end-user in mind, the latest release introduced powerful characteristics such as a new editing feature that allows extremely efficient populating of BoM data directly from the CAD environment, without having to go through the ERP application.

Its open architecture can support a wide range of ERP applications, including

• Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision)
• Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains)
• Microsoft Dynamics AX (Axapta)
• Microsoft Dynamics CRM

Established in 1979, Elmo Solutions is a world class leader in CAD-ERP data integration, with users in over 50 countries.
