ERP and Content Management System Connected – gds Automates Technical Documentation at VHV Anlagenbau
For many years, VHV has been creating the technical documentation for its machines and systems using the docuglobe content management system. Until recently, the documentation process ran largely independent of product development. The creation of manuals was not integrated into the product development process. Transferring information from machine-specific bills of materials into the technical documentation was done manually. That has now changed: Thanks to the seamless connection between the docuglobe content management system and the ABAS ERP system, VHV Anlagenbau has now automated its technical documentation. The result: faster, customized, and precise documentation that is tailored exactly to the needs of VHV’s customers and their systems.
