## Product Lifecycle Management Integrations

### PDM Professional to Agile PLM

DesignState is simple and flexible which makes it the solution of choice to integrate SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional and Oracle Agile PLM. Through simple workflow configuration and the powerful DesignState rules engine, your organization can be creating Agile part Information, BOM structures, and change orders in a matter of minutes.

DesignState has the ability to populate the attributes as you wish and if you would rather have the part transformed, Zero Wait-State offers a viewable automation package to create PDFs and other file formats.  This allows information to be available in Agile but keeps your binaries in the PDM.

How Does It Work?

- Move  
  Simply move your CAD objects through your PDM Professional workflow, submitting it for Approval.
- Gather  
  When items are approved, DesignState will gather the required information from the PDM Professional exported BOM.
- Modify  
  DesignState will create or modify Agile parts, depending on your specifications.  By default, DesignState even attaches the CAD binaries!
- Apply  
  DesignState can create change orders, adding the parts as affected items, connect to Agile and build or modify the appropriate structures.

### Windchill to Agile PLM

Thanks to DesignState integrating Windchill (PDMLink) to Agile PLM has never been easier. Through simple workflow configuration and the powerful DesignState rules engine, your organization can be creating Agile part information, BOM structures, and change orders in a matter of minutes.

DesignState is simple and flexible which makes it the solution of choice to integrate your PTC environment and Agile. DesignState has the ability to populate the attributes as you wish and if you would rather have the part transformed, Zero Wait-State offers a viewable automation package to create PDFs and other file formats. This allows information to be available in Agile but keeps your binaries in the PDM.

DesignState: Windchill (PDMLink) to Agile edition can streamline your processes by integrating your PDM system with Agile PLM.

How Does It Work?

- Move  
  Simply move your CAD objects through your Windchill (PDMLink) workflow, submitting it for Approval.
- Gather  
  When items are promoted, DesignState will gather the required information from the system and export the BOM and CAD designs and viewables.
- Modify  
  DesignState will create or modify Agile parts, depending on your specifications.
- Apply  
  DesignState can create change orders, adding the parts as affected items, connect to Agile and build or modify the appropriate structures.
