Standard Interface
The Standard Interface dialog lets you choose the format and content of your ERP export. Access it via Settings → Database. Select Advanced Settings from the table list, then open the ERP Interface - Content tab — see Advanced Settings for more on the Database dialog.
It is part of the ERP Export configuration and determines what data is sent when you use the standard JSON-based ERP export.
Interface Types
Choose one:
| Type | Best for |
|---|---|
| tsGraphRep (Graph Representation) | Full project backups, sharing with colleagues, system integration. Includes all geometry, articles, process nodes, and embedded CAD files as base64. |
| BOM (Bill of Materials) | Procurement, quoting, supplier communication. A focused list of components with quantities, costs, and dimensions — no embedded geometry. |

Version
Each format has a version selector:
- tsGraphRep: v0 (legacy, deprecated) or v1 (current default)
- BOM: v0 (current default)
TIP
If your organisation has a pre-configured interface type, your administrator sets it as the default. You can override it here for a one-off export.
