Enhanced ERP solution from SSA Global
SSA Global has announced a strategic enhancement to SSA ERPLX, its flagship enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution for high volume, process, repetitive manufacturing and distribution.
The new release extends the capabilities of SSA ERPLX to include more flexible, streamlined order-to-cash processing, improved security and other core ERP enhancements.
In addition, the upgraded release adds new vertical industry functionality to help companies in life sciences, consumer package goods, food and beverage and general manufacturing cost effectively respond to their customers’ demands.
Enhancements to SSA ERPLX represent a key milestone in the SSA Global strategy to provide its customers easy and direct upgrade paths to the company’s modernized solutions. SSA ERPLX provides a direct upgrade path for current users of SSA BPCS and SSA PRMS 8.4.
SSA ERPLX has been built and optimised for the IBM System i and leverages IBM WebSphere for integration and the adoption of SSA Open Architecture, SSA Global’s enablement of a service-oriented architecture.
Among the enhancements in SSA ERPLX is a redesigned order entry process, featuring a thin user interface that enhances productivity by minimising key strokes, simplifying navigation and providing a more intuitive process flow.
With the upgrade to SSA ERPLX, customers have access to more capable and flexible security features. For example, the enhanced security features enable customers to completely segregate company, facility and warehouse data within a single installation of the solution while allowing full visibility across the enterprise.
SSA Global also is delivering on its strategy to provide vertical industry functionality for customers in its targeted industries. Included among the enhancements are capabilities to improve order entry, labor and machine utilisation, back order management and work-in-process quality management.
