It is not possible to translate the colors from one color system into another. The reason is, the colors in each color system are fixed and do not exist in other systems. You can find only similar colors. This is always the problem of cross-reference-lists. In the worst case the mentioned cross-reference has nothing to do with the original color. You should find a similar color by comparing different color samples.
In case of delivery of goods in a color that is different from the order, one should get permission in advance from the customer by presenting color samples to him.
