Give us access to your ERP or the data warehouse it feeds and our team handles the connection. AI drafts the data mapping and a consultant checks it. Orders your planners approve go back to the ERP.

Stock arrives by batch under the ERP's own batch numbers: BATCH-TAB100-N001, 800 boxes at Nordic Warehouse.
Planning projects tend to stall at the integration, usually while someone waits for an interface spec or a slot in the IT queue. With PLAIO your IT team grants access to the ERP and we take it from there. Your planners start on live ERP data.
No two ERPs name their fields the same way. We use AI for the first pass of each mapping into PLAIO's data model, covering items, locations, bills of materials, inventory and orders. Then one of our consultants goes through it.
Your item numbers, location codes and order numbers stay as they are. PLAIO checks the data each time it loads and lists the gaps by item. A typical one is an item with no inventory policy. Another is a location that no supply lane delivers to. Your team fixes them once and the plan stops working around them.
Nobody on your side writes an interface or learns an integration platform. The plan runs on the ERP's own data and your IT team keeps working on its own roadmap.
Each kind of data has its own documented endpoint in the PLAIO Integration API, from items and bills of materials to sales orders and forecasts. Your ERP or integration partner can call them directly.
If your ERP already feeds a data warehouse, we can connect there. Otherwise we go to the ERP directly. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central has a connector that already exists.
Records are keyed on your codes, so repeating a bulk write does no harm. The ERP reads approved orders back with created_after and updated_after filters. Because the API is versioned by date, a new PLAIO release leaves your integration alone.
One specialty pharma company makes everything at CMOs and keeps its master data in NetSuite. An ETL already copied that data into a warehouse, so PLAIO reads it from there. Demand and supply for each market and CMO run off the same records.
Another company is moving from SAP ECC to S/4HANA. It plans in PLAIO today against ECC. When S/4HANA goes live the feeds switch over and the plan keeps going, which keeps planning off the migration's critical path.
On Business Central we use the existing connector. Master data and transactions come in through it, and approved orders are published for the ERP to collect.
Posting and financial control stay in the ERP, where they have always been. When an auditor or the S&OP meeting asks where a number came from, you can trace it back through each handoff.
In a demo we walk through how PLAIO would connect to your ERP or warehouse and how approved orders find their way back. Your IT team doesn't have to start a project for it.
