Elmo Solutions (Quebec, Canada) announced Agni Link, a bidirectional link between SolidWorks, Inventor, and AutoCAD and Microsoft’s Dynamics/NAV (Navision) 5.0 andERP (enterprise resource planning system). Every time a CAD model or drawing is saved, the user may edit data shared between CAD and Microsoft Dynamics/NAV using possible values obtained "live" from Microsoft Dynamics/NAV. BOM (bill of materials) data is then updated in both the CAD file and the ERP database. Agni Link supports part, component, and assembly data as well as Dynamics/NAV production BOM data and routing instructions.  The latest release introduces a new copy and paste feature that allows extremely efficient populating of BoM data directly from the CAD environment, without having to go through the ERP application.
