WFX PLM Integration

WFX PLM to AIMS360, import the style and skip the re-keying

Design and develop in WFX Cloud PLM, then bring the finished record into AIMS360 when a style is ready for production. Vendors, materials, styles, bills of materials and costing come across through the WFX import modules inside AIMS360. The connection is one-way, from WFX into AIMS360.

What Comes Across

Five imports, one direction

Each record type has its own import module in AIMS360. You download new data from WFX, review it, pick what you want and import.

01

Vendors

Vendor records created in WFX import into the AIMS360 vendor list, so purchase orders and production point at the same suppliers.

02

Materials

Fabrics and trims come across as AIMS360 materials, ready to sit on a bill of materials.

03

Styles

Style number, description, size scale, division, season and wholesale price import with the style, along with the primary style and color images.

04

Bills of materials

The BOM built in WFX imports against the style, so production starts from the materials the design team specified.

05

Costing

Costing set in WFX imports into AIMS360 against the style, which keeps the cost sheet in line with development.

Good to know

Production stage only

A style imports once its lifecycle stage in WFX is set to Production. Earlier-stage styles stay in WFX until they are ready.

Already have vendors, materials or styles in AIMS360? The Automap step in the vendor, material and style import modules links the incoming WFX records to the ones you already have.
