CAD-ERP Data Integration System for SolidWorks and Microsoft Dynamics/NAV Ships

Business Wire, April 28, 2007

QUEBEC -- Elmo Solutions, the leader in CAD-ERP data integration, announces the immediate availability of Agni Link 2008, a live, bidirectional CAD-ERP connector for SolidWorks and Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision).

Agni Link is a SolidWorks add-in that provides real-time, bidirectional integration with Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision). Agni Link is the only application of its kind that offers such a unique and reliable way to unify SolidWorks and Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) databases. Every time a SolidWorks document is saved, the user may enter and/or edit data shared between SolidWorks and Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) using possible values taken "live" from Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision). Upon end-user confirmation, data is updated in both the SolidWorks document and the Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) database, thus ensuring perfect synchronization of both data sets and completely eliminating redundant data entry. Agni Link 2008 can process and synchronize a wide range of data from either side, including:

* SolidWorks Part, Component and Assembly data

* Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) Bills Of Materials

* Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) Routing instructions

Usually yielding high Return on Investment, Agni Link typically pays for itself in less than 90 days. Elmo Solutions Science Officer, Ricardo Talbot said: "We are pleased - and very proud - to be able to deliver the most advanced and efficient method of sharing SolidWorks and Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) product data. Our customer's preliminary response so far has been nothing short of spectacular, and we are very excited about this new edition of Agni Link. We expect similar response on the upcoming release of Agni Link for Microsoft Dynamics/GP (Great Plains), which will handle Bill of Materials data with or without Manufacturing Modules."

Agni Link ships in two languages (English and French), and is readily available from Elmo Solutions. Agni Link not only addresses the needs of SolidWorks users, but also those of Microsoft Dynamics/NAV (Navision) users, who share product data with them throughout the enterprise.
