Most manufacturers run engineering change off email threads, shared spreadsheets, and a PDF drawing register that nobody trusts. Meanwhile Business Central holds the released items, BOMs, and routings that production actually builds from — with no native concept of a controlled change request, an approval chain, or a revision history on a released BOM. That gap is where wrong-revision builds, scrapped inventory, and audit findings come from.
PLM & Engineering Change Management (ECM) closes it. ECOSIRE designs, builds, and installs this as a per-tenant AL extension directly on your Business Central environment (cloud or on-prem). It is not an instant AppSource download — it is engineered around your item master, BOM structure, and approval reality, then deployed and supported by our AL team.
The extension introduces revision control on released items and production BOMs via table and page extensions, a structured Engineering Change Request (ECR) and Engineering Change Order (ECO) lifecycle, and multi-stage, role-based approval workflows wired into the Business Central job queue and notification system. Before any change is released, automated impact analysis surfaces every affected parent BOM, routing, open production order, and purchase line. Effectivity dates let you schedule a change to roll out cleanly without disrupting in-flight orders.
Because it is built on native BC objects — permission sets, event subscribers on item and BOM tables, the REST/OData v4 API, and optional Dataverse/Power Platform surfacing — it behaves like part of the platform, upgrades with your environment, and exposes change data to Power BI and Power Automate. You own the engineering change process inside the ERP, with a full, defensible audit trail.
Owns the item master and BOMs and needs released product data under formal revision control, with a clear request-review-approve-release flow instead of ad-hoc edits and emailed drawings.
Must demonstrate a defensible change audit trail for ISO 9001, IATF 16949, or FDA-style audits — who changed what, who approved it, and when it became effective — directly from the ERP of record.
Needs confidence that production only ever builds the current released revision, that effectivity dates protect in-flight orders, and that the impact of any change on open work is known before it ships to the floor.

No. This is a build-to-order extension. ECOSIRE designs it around your item master, BOM structure, and approval process, then builds and installs it as a per-tenant AL extension on your Business Central environment. There is no instant AppSource purchase — you get software fitted to how your engineering change process actually works, deployed and supported by us.
Typical delivery is about 3 to 5 weeks from the discovery session, depending on the complexity of your revision scheme, approval stages, and any Dataverse/Power Platform integration. We install and validate in a sandbox first, run through your real change scenarios, then promote to production on a scheduled date. We confirm a firm timeline after the discovery call.
The extension is built on supported AL objects and event subscribers, so it carries forward through Microsoft's major and minor Business Central updates. ECOSIRE provides a post-go-live support window for defects and questions, and offers ongoing support and enhancement plans. When Microsoft ships a major release wave, we test and recompile against the new runtime so you stay current.
Yes. It is delivered as a standard per-tenant extension and works on Business Central online (SaaS) and supported on-premises deployments. The same AL codebase targets both; the only differences are install mechanics and which integration surfaces (Dataverse, Power Automate) your licensing enables.
We scope this during discovery. Because it uses table/page extensions and event subscribers rather than modifying base objects, it coexists with other well-behaved extensions. If you already run customizations on items, BOMs, or routings, we review them up front and design the integration points so the change-control logic layers on cleanly without clobbering existing behavior.
