AutoCAD to ERP Integration for Items, BOMs and Orders
Connect AutoCAD with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Odoo or your in-house ERP, so drawing BOMs, item codes and quantities flow to purchasing and production without manual re-entry.
Close the gap between the drawing office and the ERP
In many companies, a drafter finishes a drawing, prints a BOM and someone in planning types it into the ERP. Item codes get mistyped, quantities are missed and revisions arrive late. An AutoCAD to ERP integration removes that manual step and keeps engineering and business data in step.
ENGIMANDI builds integrations that read BOM data from AutoCAD blocks, attributes, tables or AutoCAD Mechanical BOMs, validate item codes against the ERP item master, and create or update items and BOMs through the ERP's official API or integration layer. Data can also flow the other way: ERP descriptions, stock status or prices can be shown inside AutoCAD to help drafters pick standard parts.

What you get
- BOM extraction from drawings
- Item master lookup inside AutoCAD
- Item & BOM creation in ERP
- Revision & change handling
- Validation before transfer
- Approval step & audit log
- Secure API-based connection
- Error reports & retry
AutoCAD ERP integration features
Reliable data flow in both directions.
BOM Transfer
Parts, quantities, units and hierarchy sent from AutoCAD to ERP BOMs in one step.
Item Code Validation
Check that every part exists in the ERP before release, and flag new items for creation.
ERP Lookup in AutoCAD
Search the item master from an AutoCAD palette and insert standard parts with correct codes.
Revision Control
Compare drawing revisions and send only BOM changes, with engineering change references.
Costing & Quoting
Pull prices and lead times into AutoCAD for fast estimates and design-to-cost decisions.
Secure Middleware
Integration through official APIs, middleware or staging tables approved by your IT team.
ERP systems & tools
We work with your ERP's supported interfaces.
Typical projects
- Fabrication BOMs from AutoCAD drawings sent to SAP
- Panel builder BOMs from AutoCAD Electrical to Odoo
- Standard part picker linked to the Dynamics item master
- Material requisition generated from layout drawings
- Quote BOMs for engineer-to-order products
- Engineering change sync between drawings and ERP

AutoCAD ERP integration questions
Which ERP systems can you integrate with AutoCAD?
Any ERP with an API, web service, import interface or database staging option, including SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365, Odoo, Epicor, Infor and custom systems.
Our drawings do not have structured BOMs. Is integration still possible?
Usually yes. We first standardise blocks and attributes or add a BOM tool in AutoCAD, then build the integration on top.
Will the integration change ERP data without approval?
No. We normally include a review and approval step, with a log of every transfer.
Do you work with our ERP partner?
Yes. We coordinate with your ERP consultant or IT team on interfaces, security and test environments.
Can Inventor or Vault be included later?
Yes. The same integration layer can be extended to Inventor and Vault. See our Autodesk CAD-to-ERP integration service.
