Vienna, VA (PRWEB) August 10, 2005 -- Softeon, provider of the industry's
most innovative software solutions for supply chain execution, announced today
that it has achieved several certifications from SAP for integration to SAP's
ERP suite and NetWeaver platform. As one of a small number of SCE and Warehouse
Management System (WMS) providers to achieve these certifications, Softeon will
reduce the cost and risk of integration for SAP customers considering
best-of-breed logistics solutions.
The advanced technical architecture
of the ELITE series solutions greatly facilitated the certification effort.
Softeon's entire integrated suite of WMS, transportation management, order
management and other SCE applications is completely web-native and J2EE (Java)
compliant, and was built using advanced Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
design standards.
Softeon today announced it has received the following
SAP certifications:
* ELITE'S Interface Services are certified for
Decentralized Warehouse Management Systems (LE-IDW 4.6 certification), and
enable ELITE to run as a decentralized, stand-alone WMS operated separately from
the ERP (SAP R/3 4.6, 4.7 or mySAP suite of applications like mySAP ERP)
* ELITE's core architecture is J2EE compliant, is therefore certified to
run on NetWeaver framework - under SAP WAS 6.4 (web application server)
*
ELITE's “Powered by NetWeaver” certification brings the benefits of NetWeaver
components into play – ELITE can make available crucial WMS performance data and
monitoring content into SAP portals (SAP BW and other NetWeaver services) in the
framework
* ELITE has also achieved the “Certified Business Package for
SAP Enterprise Portal" (SAP EP-BP 6.0) designation.
ELITE's high
performance WMS interface service can support multiple integration methods with
SAP, including NetWeaver, real-time BAPI interfaces, and IDOC exchange. ELITE is
able to process thousands of IDOCs in the fastest possible manner, giving a high
visibility of inventory and goods movements back to SAP users. ELITE also has a
superior error-handling engine to monitor IDOC status, error processing and
system down time situations.
“Softeon has an extremely strong track
record of successful integration with SAP, other ERPs systems, and legacy
systems,” said Gana Govind, president of Softeon. “We have a proven approach and
the technology platform to reduce the time, cost and risk of integration with
any external system. The SAP certifications demonstrate these capabilities and
our commitment to successful system deployments.”
Unlike most other
best-of-breed providers, Softeon can support both sides of the integration (its
own and the SAP side), and has extensive knowledge of SAP integration
requirements.
