什么是 MES / Machine (IoT) Integration Connector？
A build-to-order Business Central extension that connects your PLCs, machines, and third-party MES to BC for near-real-time output, downtime, and sensor data — eliminating manual shop-floor data entry. Built, installed, and supported by ECOSIRE on your tenant. Built to order by ECOSIRE for Dynamics 365 BC (build-to-order) — indicative price from $799.00 USD; request a quote for a scoped proposal.

machines, and third-party MES to BC for near-real-time output, downtime, and sensor data — eliminating manual shop-floor data entry. Built, installed, and supported by
ECOSIRE on your tenant.
核心功能
PLC and OPC-UA machine-signal ingestion via a lightweight edge gateway that normalizes tags before sending to Business Central
Third-party MES integration over the BC REST/OData v4 API or a custom AL API page exposing your production data model
Automated output posting to Output Journals against the correct Production Order and routing Operation line
Downtime and machine-state capture mapped to configurable reason codes via table and page extensions
Sensor-driven anomaly and OEE feeds (availability, performance, quality) calculated from real signal data
Configurable tag-to-operation mapping stored in setup tables — retune the line without redeploying code
AL event subscribers that validate, deduplicate, and post incoming payloads with full error logging
Job queue entry that buffers and reconciles signals so brief network drops never lose a count
Near-real-time bidirectional exchange — push schedules and work-order context back to the MES/HMI
Dedicated permission sets scoping who can configure mappings versus view machine telemetry
Optional Dataverse / Power Platform bridge so the same telemetry drives Power BI dashboards and Power Apps
Telemetry archive and audit log for every posted reading, retained inside Business Central for traceability

关于此产品
Stop typing what your machines already know
Your PLCs, OPC-UA servers, and MES already count every part, log every stoppage, and read every sensor. Yet operators still key that data into Business Central by hand — late, incomplete, and impossible to trust for OEE. The MES / Machine (IoT) Integration Connector closes that gap with a purpose-built AL extension that ingests machine signals and posts them directly against your production orders.
ECOSIRE designs the connector around your actual shop floor. We map machine tags (output counts, downtime/state codes, scrap, temperature, vibration, cycle time) to your routing operations and Production Order / Operation lines, then deliver a per-tenant AL extension installed on your Business Central environment. No data leaves through screenshots or spreadsheets again.
How the data flows
A lightweight edge gateway reads your PLC/OPC-UA or MES endpoints and pushes normalized payloads to Business Central's REST/OData v4 API (or via a custom AL API page). Event subscribers validate and post output to Output Journals, register downtime against configurable reason codes, and surface anomaly and OEE feeds. A job queue entry reconciles buffered signals, so a brief network drop never loses a count. Mapping, polling cadence, and tag-to-operation rules live in setup tables and pages you control — no code change to retune the line.
Honest delivery model
This is build-to-order, not an instant AppSource download. After purchase, ECOSIRE scopes your machine signals and tag list, builds the extension, installs it per-tenant (sandbox first, then production), configures permission sets and the job queue, and validates against live machine data with your team. Optional Dataverse / Power Platform bridging lets the same telemetry feed Power BI and Power Apps.
你得到什么
- A per-tenant Business Central AL extension (.app), version-controlled and built to your machine/MES topology
- Edge gateway configuration for your PLC/OPC-UA or MES endpoints, with tag normalization rules
- Tag-to-operation mapping configured against your real Production Orders and routings
- Sandbox installation and validation followed by supervised production install
- Custom permission sets and job queue setup, documented and handed over
- Configuration runbook plus an admin guide for adding machines and reason codes yourself
这是给谁的
Plant IT / OT Lead
Owns the bridge between the shop floor (PLCs, OPC-UA, MES) and the ERP. Needs reliable, near-real-time machine data in Business Central without standing up a fragile in-house integration.
Industry 4.0 / Digital Manufacturing Manager
Driving the smart-factory roadmap. Wants automated OEE, downtime, and anomaly feeds sourced directly from machines to replace manual operator entry and unlock data-driven decisions.
Production / Operations Manager
Lives by accurate output and downtime numbers. Needs Production Order progress and scrap to reflect what machines actually did, in real time, not what was typed in at shift end.

关于MES / Machine (IoT) Integration Connector的常见问题
How long does delivery take, and what is the process?
This is a build-to-order extension, so there is no instant download. Typical delivery is 3 to 6 weeks depending on the number of machines, signal types, and MES complexity. We start with a scoping session to inventory your PLC/OPC-UA tags and MES endpoints, build and unit-test the AL extension, install it in your sandbox for validation against live machine data, then perform a supervised production install with your team.
What ongoing support and updates are included?
Installation includes a support and warranty window covering defect fixes and configuration adjustments as you onboard machines. Because the connector is a per-tenant extension, ECOSIRE keeps it compatible across Business Central monthly and major release cycles. Ongoing maintenance — new machine lines, additional signal types, or MES changes — is available under a support retainer or as scoped change requests.
Does this need an internet-exposed PLC or machine?
No. The edge gateway runs inside your network and reads PLC/OPC-UA or MES endpoints locally, then makes outbound calls to your Business Central REST/OData API over HTTPS. Your control hardware is never directly exposed to the internet.
Will this work with Business Central online (SaaS) and on-premises?
Yes. The extension is standard AL and installs on both BC online (SaaS) and on-premises. For SaaS, the gateway authenticates to the BC API via OAuth/Entra ID; for on-premises it can use the local web services endpoint. We confirm the right authentication path during scoping.
How is this different from just entering output manually or building it ourselves?
Manual entry is late, error-prone, and useless for real OEE. A from-scratch in-house build means you own the AL code, the gateway, the job-queue resilience, and every BC upgrade. ECOSIRE delivers a tested, supported extension with proven event-subscriber and reconciliation patterns, configured to your shop floor — you get the outcome without owning the integration risk.
