01Summary
It integrates with Autodesk Fusion, Infor, Microsoft 365, and Oracle NetSuite to draft quotes, quality reports, and supplier requests. Each draft requires human approval before delivery. The plugin uses existing workflows and skills, with key steps paused for review. Microsoft 365 connector enables access to shared folders and inboxes, serving as the central component for small-to-mid-sized manufacturers. Data from systems without direct connectors is imported via exports to Microsoft 365.
