Most of this is not built yet

Integrations

Mängda should fit the tools you already have. Signing in with Google Workspace works today, on Team and Enterprise. None of the other links can be switched on yet, on any plan. This is what each one does or will do, and where it stops.

PlannedCAD-export

CAD-export

Export

The measurements and the runs back out as a base drawing.

Will

  • Put the pipe runs, chambers and areas you have drawn in Mängda on a DWG or DXF layer.
  • Keep the scale from the drawing, so the measurements line up when the layer is laid over the original.
  • Name the layers by type of run, so foul, surface water and mains can be turned off one at a time.

Will not

  • Read a DWG file in. Import is a job of its own and is not part of this: Mängda takes PDF and images.
  • Redraw the original drawing. The export is a layer on top, not a new drawing.
Under way nowMicrosoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Accounts systems

Quantities and quote lines straight through to the accounts system, with no step in between.

Will

  • Send a finished quote to Business Central as a draft sales order.
  • Match your part numbers against the entries in the price list, so the lines land on the right item.
  • Let you read prices off Business Central instead of keeping two price lists.

Will not

  • Post anything to the accounts. The draft sits there until somebody at your end approves it.
  • Write back to Mängda. The flow goes one way: from take-off to accounts.
Under way nowOkta

Okta

SSO

Sign-in for organisations that already run Okta.

Will

  • Take sign-ins over SAML or OIDC from your Okta directory.
  • Let you control who reaches Mängda from Okta, just like your other apps.

Will not

  • Provision accounts over SCIM in the first version. Seats are still handed out in Mängda.
Next releaseMicrosoft Entra ID

Microsoft Entra ID

SSO

Sign in with the work account you already have.

Will

  • Let everybody at the firm sign in with their Microsoft work account, with no separate password in Mängda.
  • Follow your MFA policy. The requirements are set in Entra, not here.
  • Take away access to Mängda when the account is shut off at your end.

Will not

  • Create new seats on its own. A new sign-in still needs a free seat on the licence.
  • Map your groups on to roles in Mängda automatically in the first version.
Next releaseBIM-export

BIM-export

Export

The quantities out to the model instead of to a spreadsheet.

Will

  • Write the quantities as IFC, so they can be read into the model along with the rest of the project.
  • Carry size, material and length on every line, the same figures as in the bill of quantities.

Will not

  • Build a 3D model for you. What is exported is quantities with properties, not geometry in three dimensions.
  • Replace a coordinated model. This is input to one, not a substitute for it.
Next release

Fortnox

Accounts systems

Quotes, customers and invoice drafts on to Fortnox without retyping anything.

Will

  • Send an approved quote to Fortnox as a quote or an order, with your own articles.
  • Fetch and send customers, so the same customer does not exist in two versions.
  • Create an invoice draft in Fortnox from a finished job.

Will not

  • Post to the ledger or send invoices on its own. The draft stays in Fortnox until someone at your company approves it.
  • Replace Fortnox. The accounts are kept there; the quantities and the quote are made here.
AvailableGoogle Workspace

Google Workspace

SSO

Sign in with your company's Google accounts. Part of Team and Enterprise.

Does

  • Lets you verify your domain with a DNS record and require everyone with an address on it to sign in with their Google Workspace account.
  • Keeps out anyone you suspend in Google, when you require signing in with Google: they cannot sign in again.
  • Lets colleagues with an address on the domain join the workspace on their own, if you want.
  • Ties the sign-in to an account that already exists, if the email address is the same.

Does not

  • Work with a private Gmail address, or a private Google account on the company address. It has to be a Workspace account on your domain.
  • Hand out licences. Anyone who joins gets a licence when an admin grants one.
  • Sign out someone already signed in the moment their account is suspended in Google. Remove them under Members for that.
  • Read anything in your Google Drive or Gmail. Signing in is all it does.

More features on the way

Not connections to other systems, but things we are building into Mängda itself. The same rule applies: what each will do, and where the line is.

Under way now

Bid management

Purchasing

Request and compare wholesalers' bids on your quantities, and accept the best one right in Mängda.

Will

  • Send your bill of quantities to the wholesalers you choose, as a request for prices.
  • Let the wholesalers bid against your own lines, so the answers can be compared line by line.
  • Show the bids side by side and let you accept the one you choose.

Will not

  • Order or pay for anything on your behalf. Accepting a bid is your decision, and the order is placed with the wholesaler as usual.
  • Choose a wholesaler for you, or rank them on anything other than what you can see yourself: price and what is included.

Default systems and symbols

Drawings

Fit Mängda to the way you work: which systems and symbols are in the toolbar and how they are drawn, for piping, electrical and groundworks.

Will

  • Give the workspace default systems for every trade Mängda covers: piping (such as hot water, cold water, heating, cooling, foul water and stormwater), electrical, and groundworks and foundations.
  • Grow in phases, at the same pace as the rest of the suite, so each new trade arrives with its own default systems.
  • Let you choose per system whether it appears in the toolbar, in every project.
  • Let you set how each system is drawn, with line style, line thickness and symbols, so the drawing follows your own standard and the symbols you already use.
  • Let you copy a default system and make it your own, under My systems.
  • Do the same for materials: which can be chosen and how they appear.

Will not

  • Change the original drawing. The settings control how what you draw in Mängda looks, not the PDF underneath.
  • Change the quantities. A system drawn differently is measured and priced exactly as before.

Quotes for client approval

Quotes and clients

Send the quote to your client through the share link, get it approved, and pass it on to your business system.

Will

  • Let your client open the project and the quote through the share link, without an account of their own.
  • Let the client approve the quote, leave comments or ask for a change, right on the page.
  • Show you which quotes are waiting for an answer, approved, or need changing.
  • Make every approved and sent quote exportable as a quote or invoice draft to CRM and business systems.

Will not

  • Be a legal signature. An approval in Mängda is the client's go-ahead, not a signed contract.
  • Let the client change quantities or prices. The client can ask for a change, and you make it.
Available

Customer register

Customers

The whole customer picture in one place: current projects, sent quotes and past jobs for each customer.

Does

  • Let you create customers in Mängda, or import them from your CRM or business system.
  • Gather everything per customer: current projects, sent quotes and past paid jobs.
  • Link projects and quotes to a customer, so a new quote starts with the customer's details filled in.

Does not

  • Replace your CRM. Mängda keeps what it needs to take off and quote, and fetches the rest.
  • Send mailings or marketing to your customers.

Do you need a different link?

The order is decided by what you actually get stuck on, not by what looks good in a list. Get in touch and tell us which system the quantities have to go on to. That weighs more than anything we guess at.
