COSMO Product Data Management

COSMO Product Data Management is an industry solution of COSMO CONSULT certified by Microsoft Business Solutions.

The module COSMO Product Data Management offers a wide range of product data management features within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

The technical documents in the fields of mechanics, electrical engineering and electronics are managed together according to the same rules. The creation of drawing revisions is largely automatic. This also applies to the provision of drawings and documents for production, purchasing and service.

Key Features

  • Drawing Management
  • Revision Management
  • Change Management
  • Integration of CAD Systems (CADLink)

COSMO PDM CAD Connector is an extension of COSMO Product Data Management and enables the seamless integration of more than 20 CAD (Computer-Aided Design), PDM (Product Data Management) and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) systems in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

A flexible setup ensures that the data in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is always up-to-date. In addition to the creation of drawings, items and BOMs, the processes are also harmonized by CAD and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The transfer of the status of a drawing directly controls processes in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. If required, you can add components to the generated BOMs without deleting them when changing drawings.
