  3. PARTlinkManager > Extras menu > Update manager

    The Update manager may optionally be used in PARTsolutions with ERP integration:

    With ERP integration the datasets in the LinkDB are assigned to a certain project line (project path + line ID).

    During a catalog update with ERP integration the datasets in the LinkDB are automatically assigned according to projects and lines of the new version.

    Whether assignments have been performed correctly can be checked with the Update manager easily and effectively. Assignments can be accepted or rejected. If needed new assignments can be performed manually.

    Possible changes are:

    • Changes in the project (table, geometry, standard name)

    • Moved project

    • Deleted projects or lines
