Below you will find a small overview of the ERP functions of the 3Dfindit user interface that can be customized for individual roll sets/rolls:
When 3Dfindit is started, the login dialog [Log in] appears.
If several roles are configured, a role selection appears after confirmation with .
3Dfindit then opens at catalog level. Either browse through the directory structure manually or use a search method.

The following illustration shows an example of the status display that controls the export condition [Export condition].
For parts with an ERP number (and another hidden option, for example), the status display is green or yellow.
Parts cannot be exported for all other colors.
Example of status display: With green and yellow, the relevant parts can be transferred to the CAD system; not with all other colors!
Details on configuration options can be found under Section 5.7, “ Set up ERP environment ”.
