Integration Interface

This is a selection of typical integrations in a RS Production solution using both standard and custom integrations. Note that it is also possible to add the Addon Machine Data Interface to integrate with machines
Introduction
Gives access to several ways to integrate data between RS Production and other softwares.
MS SQL-table middle layer
Webservice API (REST API)
Both interfaces offers standard connections to RS Production that enables it for anyone to make write an integration to any other system.
Also, the Addon Integration Interface enables a RS Production Solution Partner to make custom integrations.
The CSV-file import is available even without this Addon Integration Interface.

MS SQL-table middle layer (one way, or two ways)
What data is integrated like this?
standard interface for 2-way integration of production plan and related data.
What systems are typically connected like this?
ERP, MPR, APS, and more …
What data can be read?
Production orders, order queue (with prio), Articles (products) and their properties
What data can be written?
Order/operation status, Produced/scrapped/approved/reworked amount, Amount ready for stock, Machining time, Changeover time, Cycle times, Time per approved unit
How to connect?
A standard SQL-table is set up on MS SQL Server close to your master data. A RS Production integration client (with Edge capabilities) is handling the reading/writing between the SQL table and RS Production.

What data can be imported?
Most common is articles (products) and their properties, but any part of the RS Production data model can be imported this way.
