Custom Plan-de-CAMpagne integration development
Appfront builds custom integrations with Plan-de-CAMpagne, the ERP system for manufacturing. We connect your ERP to your webshop, customer portal, machine park or own application, so that estimates, production orders, hours, stock and invoices end up in the right place automatically. You avoid double data entry, work with up-to-date data on the shop floor and keep control from quote to invoice.
What is a Plan-de-CAMpagne integration?
Plan-de-CAMpagne is an ERP system for the SME manufacturing industry, supplied by Bemet International (part of ECI Software Solutions). It brings the entire production process together in a single package: from costing and quotes, through planning, work preparation, production and time tracking, to stock, purchasing and invoicing. Manufacturers use it to control order- and project-driven production from start to finish.
In practice, a custom integration means: orders from your webshop or customer portal automatically arrive as jobs in Plan-de-CAMpagne, stock and lead-time information flows back to the sales side, hours are imported from the shop floor or a shopfloor app, and invoices or financial data are synchronised with your accounting. This removes re-keying between systems and gives everyone the same up-to-date figures.
Appfront builds these integrations to the OWASP ASVS security standard and aligns them with your actual production processes. You can find more background on the package on the official vendor site (ECI / Bemet). We make sure the integration grows with your business and keeps running reliably even under peak load.
A single source of truth
Estimates, orders, stock and hours sit in one place in your ERP. An integration ensures the surrounding systems (webshop, portal, shop floor) work with that same data, without double entry or outdated figures.
Order to invoice
From an incoming order through production order and hours to the final invoice, the whole chain runs without manual handover. Fewer errors, shorter lead times and better delivery reliability.
Custom integration
Via APIs, web services or a secure middleware layer, we connect Plan-de-CAMpagne to exactly the systems you use. The integration follows your processes, not the other way round, and remains manageable for your own team.
Our development process for Plan-de-CAMpagne integrations
We follow a proven methodology that removes uncertainty early and delivers a stable integration. From an initial analysis of your production processes and your Plan-de-CAMpagne environment through to go-live and ongoing management, every step is aimed at an integration your team can understand and trust.
We map out which data must flow between Plan-de-CAMpagne and your other systems, which APIs or web services are available, and which processes (estimating, production, hours, stock or invoicing) the integration touches.
We design the integration architecture, choose the right authentication and set up an error-handling strategy, so no orders or hours are lost, even at peak volumes.
Implementation with automated tests, structured logging and monitoring. You'll see working builds along the way and can keep an eye on the first data flows as they come in.
Controlled go-live with data validation and a safety net, followed by ongoing management, monitoring and further development of the integration.
What a Plan-de-CAMpagne integration delivers in practice
Every integration is set up specifically for your production processes and the systems around them. Below are the functionalities we most often deliver for manufacturers who use Plan-de-CAMpagne as the heart of their operations.
API and web service integration
We connect to the available APIs, web services or database access of Plan-de-CAMpagne and link your ERP with your webshop, customer portal, machine park or in-house software, robustly, with logging and proper error handling.
Costing and quotes
Quote requests from your webshop or portal land automatically as a costing in Plan-de-CAMpagne; approved quotes flow back as orders. You quote faster and avoid retyping between sales and work preparation.
Planning & production orders
We connect production orders and planning from your ERP to shop-floor screens, MES software or a custom dashboard. Progress on operations flows back, so planners and operators work from the same real-time status.
Time registration
Hours from the shop floor, a time clock or a mobile shop-floor app are read automatically against the correct order and operation. More accurate post-calculation, a fairer picture per job and less administration for your people.
Stock & purchasing
We display stock levels and lead times from Plan-de-CAMpagne live in your webshop or portal, and link purchase orders to supplier data. Fewer mistakes, more reliable delivery promises and control over your material flow.
Invoicing & finance
We synchronise invoices and financial transactions between Plan-de-CAMpagne and your accounting package or customer portal. Tidy bookkeeping without double entry, with a traceable trail from order to payment.
Typical applications in manufacturing
A Plan-de-CAMpagne integration looks different for every company. We regularly see a number of patterns across the manufacturing industry, and for each we have a working setup that pays attention to the right data, error handling and management.
Metalworking
Machining, sheet metal and welding companies that want to tightly link quotes, production orders and post-calculation between ERP and the shop floor. Drawings and operations attached to the correct order, with hours flowing straight back into Plan-de-CAMpagne. See also our API integrations.
Machine & equipment manufacturing
Builders of machines, modules and devices with complex bills of materials and assembly. An integration between costing, material requirements, planning and assembly hours keeps additional work and progress per project visible from start to handover.
Subcontracting & job shops
Suppliers and job shops working from customer orders and repeat orders. EDI or portal integrations bring purchase orders straight into production and automatically send order confirmations, lead times and invoices back to the customer.
Installation & project manufacturing
Companies doing project and installation work, where engineering, production and on-site assembly come together. Linking project planning, hours and materials to Plan-de-CAMpagne keeps budget, progress and invoicing under control for each project.
Technology we use
We build Plan-de-CAMpagne integrations on the APIs, web services or database access available in your ERP environment, combined with the backend stack that suits you. Where needed, we add a middleware layer for reliable, logged exchange, so your own team can manage or further develop the integration.
Why Appfront for your Plan-de-CAMpagne integration?
Appfront has extensive experience building API integrations for a wide range of organisations in the Netherlands, including ERP integrations for the manufacturing industry. We always begin with a thorough analysis of the existing systems and processes. An integration must not only work technically, but also add practical value on the shop floor and in administration.
For every integration, we write clear documentation and make sure your own team, or any future supplier, can understand and manage it. No black box, just transparent code and clear agreements on monitoring, alerting and maintenance.
You work with a dedicated point of contact who understands both the technical and the functional side. This keeps communication short, prevents misunderstandings and speeds up decisions when choices need to be made during development.
You can also explore our broader services around API integrations, middleware, custom software and web app development. Do you work with a different ERP? Then take a look at our Isah, Ridder iQ or Syntess integration, or the full overview of integrations.

Security and privacy in Plan-de-CAMpagne integrations
An ERP integration touches your most valuable business data: costings, customer and supplier details, prices, production know-how and staff hours. That is why Appfront builds in line with the OWASP ASVS. Among other things, that means encrypted connections, secrets in secure vaults, scoped and strictly separated permissions per integration, and regular audits of the data flows between Plan-de-CAMpagne and the connected systems.
Because an integration often involves personal data, such as hours registration, contact persons or order history, we process only the data that is strictly necessary and document the data flows for your record of processing activities. This helps you demonstrably comply with the GDPR and keeps you in control of who can view or change which business data.

Frequently asked questions about Plan-de-CAMpagne integrations
Answers to the questions we receive most often about Plan-de-CAMpagne integrations.
A Plan-de-CAMpagne integration is a technical link between the Plan-de-CAMpagne ERP system and another system, such as your webshop, customer portal, machine park, CAD/CAM environment or in-house application. Data on estimates, quotes, production orders, hours registration, stock and invoices is exchanged between the systems, so your team no longer has to enter it twice. An integration can be simple (importing orders) or extensive (real-time synchronisation of stock, planning and hours across several systems).
We integrate Plan-de-CAMpagne with, among others, webshops, customer and supplier portals, CAD/CAM and drawing management, machine and MES software on the shop floor, hours registration and shopfloor apps, accounting and invoicing packages, and BI dashboards. Which integration is possible depends on the API, web services or database access available in your Plan-de-CAMpagne environment. During the analysis phase, we work together to map out what is technically feasible.
A simple integration, for example importing orders from a webshop or reading stock levels, can go live within a few weeks. Extensive scenarios involving real-time synchronisation of estimates, production orders, hours and invoicing across several systems usually take longer. After an intake meeting and an analysis of your Plan-de-CAMpagne environment, we give you a realistic estimate.
We work with the APIs, web services or database access that Plan-de-CAMpagne offers, combined with the backend stack that suits you: Node.js, Python, PHP, .NET or Java. For reliable data exchange, we add a middleware layer where needed, with a message queue, retries and logging. We set up authentication and authorisation according to what your environment supports, with permissions separated for each integration.
Plan-de-CAMpagne is available both on-premise and in the cloud. An integration is possible for either variant, but the approach differs: for an on-premise installation, we look at secure access to the database or web services within your network, while for a cloud environment, we look at the available APIs. We tailor the architecture to your specific situation and to the agreements you have with your ERP supplier.
Yes. Production, customer and staff data are business-sensitive, so Appfront builds in line with the OWASP ASVS. Among other things, that means encrypted connections, secrets in secure vaults, scoped and separated permissions per integration, and extensive logging. We only process the data that is needed, document the data flows for your record of processing activities and make sure you can demonstrably comply with the GDPR.
Yes. Appfront regularly takes over existing integrations, even if they were originally set up by another party or by your ERP vendor. We review the integration, error handling and logging, document the current setup and propose improvements. From that point on, we handle changes, extensions and monitoring.
Plan-de-CAMpagne is an ERP system for SME manufacturers and order- and project-driven production. It suits metalworkers, machine and equipment builders, suppliers and job shops, and businesses with installation or project-based production.
