Information Portal for VAI System 2000Info Portal for VAI System 2000
How to Use the
Information Portal with Randr's 2d Information Portal (Infoportal) is the perfect complement to your VAI System 2000 software running on an iSeries or AS/400. Here are some of the key reasons why:
Better reporting and visibility VAI System 2000 is a decent transaction processing system, but is stronger when comes to reporting than a system like JD Edwards World. Infoportal extends that reporting and provides you with capabilities like realigning sales history for territory changes, consolidating product divisions and classes for better reporting. TheInfoportal gives you real time information on the state of your business, including things like vendor and customer performance, daily bookings and sales. The three year sales history reports by item, customer and territory (salesman) allow you to handle territory realignment so you are getting a true comparison of performance. See samples in the documents below
Puts real information in the hands of
your executives, internal employees and external sales
force
See up to the minute information any time during the day instead
of waiting for the overnight processes to calculate that data.
Instead of giving your sales force monthly reports, let them see their
performance every day. The three year sales history screens with
detail drill downs to monthly performance and items purchased allows your
sales force to understand what is happening within their territories and
easily spot changes in customer purchasing patterns. Executives can
see the overall state of their business on one screen.
Keeps the control in your
hands
With the Infoportal security, you can allow
users to or restrict users from every individual menu option. This
lets you give Infoportal access with confidence knowing that users will
not be able to see anything you don't want them to have access
to.
May extend the life of your iSeries or AS/400 and
save you $$
Infoportal
runs on a stand alone linux
server that can be built using an existing or new PC.
It accesses the data directly from the VAI data files,
but most of work load takes place on the linux server not on
your iSeries or AS/400. For many of our customers this has allowed them to
postpone or cancel hardware and disk upgrades.
Information Portal for VAI System 2000 is free Open Source Software and
it works directly with the VAI System 2000 data on your iSeries or AS400. Currently
the source files are included with VAI System 2000 Warehouse Management Portal downloads.
However, you want a separate copy, we will be happy to provide the source code and a
war file for you. Just use our request form. Randr's
philosophy is to bring affordable software to small and medium sized business
which gives them the same and sometimes better tools than the larger
companies at a fraction of the price (free). If you can use this software, we are happy to provide it for you.
