Property Manager Script - Link to Web CRM

[Mika]

Hi.

Is there anyone ever thought to make a script for Alibre to fill up part/assembly properties via own Web CRM like for example salesforce or some another like Taimer? It would be nice to gather own most used material item codes on the own web CRM and then just with few clicks get those properties on the newly created part/assembly. This would save so a lot of time to fill up those BOM item properties.

(Please give a open minded supportive, encouraging and motivating answers.)

Taimer have already access to OneDrive files, so there is file and item property already quite a near to each others...

Hello Mika,

a) Which data are property data for you?
b) Should "the script" pull the data from the CRM or from a "database file"?
c) or should the CRM push data into Alibre?
d) At which point in project creation should the "copy process" happen?
e) are you using the free version of taimer? (or something else)

Regards
Stefan

Hello Mika,

b-c) from crm to Alibre file properties

If you want to get (pull) the information from CRM you need a "hook" to CRM or a database.
If you want to write the data from CRM to Alibre (push) you need to have the "script" on the CRM side...

d) Whenever you want to add the properties on your part/assembly

have you seen this Thread ?
