The Autodesk Manufacturing Data Model API is a way to store your manufacturing design data in the cloud, making it easily accessible from anywhere. Using the example of the OpenBOM cloud application, this class will show how to streamline product lifecycle management (PLM) integrations with Autodesk Fusion 360 software using the Manufacturing Data Model API. Let's see how you can develop fully connected model SaaS applications using Autodesk Platform Services and the Manufacturing Data Model API.

Autodesk Fusion Manage software helps users make data-driven decisions by keeping data consistent and enforcing processes. With all the data that Fusion Manage can track, we need a way to see what the data means and what's happening. Fusion Manage has built-in reporting features, but they may not always show the data the way you want or need. You can use Microsoft Power BI with your Fusion Manage tenant to get more options for how to display your data and who can access it. In this session, we'll show you how to use Autodesk Platform Services and R script to get data from all your Fusion Manage workspaces and create reports and dashboards for different users in your company. The R script we use in this class came from a previous AU presentation for BIM 360 software, but we've updated it for Fusion Manage and V2 authentication.

Companies struggle with cost overruns, supply chain disruptions, and inefficient production due to poorly managed Bills of Materials (BOMs). Inaccurate BOMs can lead to delays, excess inventory, and missed revenue opportunities. So, let's take a deep dive into the important world of the BOM and build a blueprint for successful product development and equipment manufacturing. This session will equip you with practical strategies to create accurate, optimized BOMs. We'll explore best practices, tools, and case studies to streamline BOM processes. We'll start in CAD, building a good foundation. Then we'll move this information into product lifecycle management (PLM), enterprise resource planning (ERP), and other production-related applications.

Autodesk Fusion Manage software is Autodesk's cloud-based product lifecycle management (PLM) solution that connects people, processes, and data. Server-side scripting in Fusion Manage is a powerful and versatile feature that helps extend the Fusion Manage workflow and lifecycle capabilities to suit custom business needs. Scripts are writing in JavaScript language, and the scripting engine supports JavaScript 1.5. Scripting enables execution of specific instructions that transform the behavior of the system or enhance the functionality of the platform. Scripts can be used for process automation, data manipulation, customization, and extension of system capabilities. We'll explore various options available to configure and trigger scripts (On Workflow Transition, On Demand, On Create, On Update), different kinds of scripts (Action, Validation, and Condition scripts), and scripting functionalities (emailing, spawning items, and so on)—along with tips and tricks, best practices, and some examples.

Managing both the product lifecycle and the manufacturing execution system is crucial for businesses looking to streamline their operations and improve overall efficiency.
