Introduction

Infor PLM Discrete interfaces directly with Creo, facilitating direct transfer of product designs from the Creo environment into Infor ERP LN. This eliminates the inherent risks and errors associated with data entry from multiple sources. Creo files can be managed according to configuration management methodology, while facilitating the direct transfer of complete design Bills of Material (BOMs) to the production environment.

Viewing design files is no longer a privilege afforded only to engineering departments. All authorized users are provided with the tools to search, browse, view and manipulate documents from a secured central database, enhancing collaborative teamwork.

Using the embedded Infor PLM Discrete menu and toolbar, the Infor PLM Discrete Integration for Creo provides access to Infor PLM Discrete functionality from within the native working environment, such as:

  • Searching and retrieving files from the database.
  • Saving files to the database.
  • Creating hierarchical relationships between various documents and items.

This integration connects engineering workgroups to the entire enterprise in the native Creo environment. Creo and Infor PLM Discrete exchange product information, and update files and documents throughout the design process.
