Autodesk Fusion Manage + Oracle NetSuite
PLM and ERP Seamlessly Working Together
Establish a seamless, bi-directional, and error-free synchronization between Autodesk Fusion Manage and Oracle NetSuite.
Why This Matters
eliminate the latency, manual work, and human error involved in transferring data between Fusion Manage to NetSuite
ensure the most current and accurate released parts, bill of materials, approved vendors, inventory and other related product data are synchronized between Fusion Manage and NetSuite
reduce the cost of quality (CoQ) reflected in rework, scrap, product returns, shipping delays, and expedited freight expenses, all of which erode margins
PLM Meets ERP
Fusion Manage serves as the “system of record” managing the product lifecycle of activities including design, engineering, configuration, and change management
NetSuite relies on the most current product data to support sourcing, inspection and quality, manufacturing and delivery
via the integration, the two platforms maintain fully synchronized parts (item masters), simple or advanced BOMs, metadata, revisions and more
Certified Integration Partners
Approved integration through the Built for NetSuite and Autodesk ADN programs.
The Nexus Difference: Seamless Synchronization with Zero Delays and Ease of Maintenance
Accelerated setup thanks to prebuilt “transaction templates” tailored for quintessential engineering and design use cases.
No code data exchanges that are facilitated by webhooks and REST APIs that simplify support, modifications and upgrades.
A future proof, single platform that can support additional integrations with your ERP, ECM, MES and other enterprise platforms.

The Hidden Costs of Disconnected PLM and ERP Systems
Release Delays - Downstream activities end up using outdated and inaccurate product data to transact purchase orders, inspection and quality, manufacturing process planning and more.
Data, Document, or Vendor Information out of Synch - When Autodesk Fusion Management and Oracle NetSuite aren't synchronized, version conflicts occur, outdated parts and/or BOMs are used, qualified sources are not available to engineering, and inadvertent use of outdated vendor data or unapproved vendors occur.
Compliance Risks - Manual transfers between PLM and ERP create gaps in your audit trail and make it nearly impossible to maintain data and file integrity as well as regulatory compliance across your complete product development process.
Cost of Quality (CoQ) - Disconnected platforms contributed to scrap, rework, returns, excess inventory, delayed schedules, expedited shipment payments, and warranties that ultimately add to the cost of quality which drains profits.

One Integration Platform - The Manufacturing Industry’s Only Comprehensive Digital Thread Platform providing CAD-to-MRO Connectivity
Integration Components:
Autodesk Fusion Manage Connector - This connector supports a myriad of Autodesk Fusion Manage configurations including Items, Files, use of Lifecycles and/or ECOs. The connector supports Fusion Manage unique data structure including the extraction of change workflows, parts, BOMs, and documents.
Oracle NetSuite Connector - Purpose-built for Oracle NetSuite. This connector handles part creation and updates, simple or advanced BOM configurations creation and updates, vendor and supplier synchronization, lifecycle state synchronization, and no-code flexibility to support additional use cases.
Nexus - Orchestration hub that eliminates code and logic from the endpoints and coordinates the exchange and processing for data and files. Pre-configurated “Transaction Templates” are designed to encapsulate common use case and workflow logic. Nexus contains built in field mappings, encryption, error detection, and recovery processes.
