Put every configuration on the same business data line.
Across ERP, PIM, PLM, CRM and WMS, first establish ownership of product, price, inventory, customer, order and BOM data, then design traceable connections.

- BOM & orders
- System boundaries
Master-data systems
Product, price, inventory and customer
ii3d configuration & quote
Selections, rules and outcomes
Business & production systems
BOM, order, work order and status
See the business breaks clearly first.
Not another system layer — a way to connect configuration, operations and delivery in the workflow you already run.
Data ownership is unclear
Product, pricing and inventory have multiple versions, leaving the configurator without a trusted source.
Configuration output is not production-ready
Sales configurations still require manual translation into production materials, processes or order fields.
Changes are hard to trace
After fields, SKUs or rules change, teams cannot quickly find the affected configurations and orders.
How the route moves from input to business outcome.
Agree responsibilities and information boundaries at each stage before choosing the technical connection.

Business & production systems
BOM, order, work order and status
Design the key connection points for handoff.
These are the capabilities to confirm during assessment and delivery; they do not replace technical validation in the project.
Define system responsibilities first
Record the source of truth, read scope, write scope and final owner in the integration blueprint.
Build object and field mappings
Create reviewable mappings for SKUs, selections, BOMs, quotes, orders and customers.
Design the business flow
Separate master-data delivery, configuration return, order handoff and inventory or status updates.
Keep a change trail
Reserve queryable records and ownership for versions, failed events and manual handling.
Use concrete scenarios to decide what to connect first.
These are typical delivery scenarios that use no client names or sensitive data, helping define an initial scope.
Product master-data governance
Clarify the source of products, options and prices so teams do not maintain conflicting versions.
Custom quote to BOM
Turn approved selections into structured results that downstream systems can understand and review.
Order-to-production coordination
Hand off sales outcome, order context and production information along the same route.
Use four steps for a controlled integration.
Use source material, samples and a test environment to reduce rework and align business and technical teams.
- Step 01
Map the current system landscape
Map systems, interfaces, data owners and the business points that need connection.
- Step 02
Confirm data ownership
For each core object, confirm the source, update authority and target systems requiring write-back.
- Step 03
Review mappings with samples
Use anonymized product, quote and order examples to review mappings and exception scenarios.
- Step 04
Validate and hand over governance
After validating the end-to-end flow, define collaboration for changes, monitoring and manual handling.
Common questions
Before a project begins, clarify scope, ownership and the materials to prepare.
Which system should be the product source of truth?
This depends on current business governance. The page helps make ownership explicit rather than replacing existing systems by default.
How are non-standard BOMs represented?
First confirm non-standard rules, composition and the receiving system’s object model, then define the boundary from configuration result to BOM.
Does the ERP need modification?
It depends on existing interfaces, fields and desired flow. The assessment separates reusable capabilities from extensions that need project confirmation.
Which technical materials are needed?
Prepare a system inventory, interface notes, data dictionary, permission constraints, test environment and anonymized business examples.
