Geoff,

I am curious on the choice of MAPICS overall? Forced on you by a parent
company?

As far as implementation goes be aware of the gotchas all over the place
in functionality. Lots of gaps and bugs cripple what was a good design
15 years ago. Most companies have developed in house code to shore up
the weaknesses or adopted third party products to patch things over.
Given the declining state of the third party providers and MAPICS Inc's
relationship with them, go with the in house solution if at all
possible. 

And of course.............GET SOURCE you will need it for many reasons.

Good luck!

Konrad

Hi to everyone on the mailing list.

My name is Geoff Richardson and my company have spent the last 22 months
preparing to implement MAPICS XA 6.0  We are finally ready to go live at
the first sites.  I don't really have a specific question for y'all, but
I would be very interested to hear your memories, lessons, experiences
and advice relating to the implementation and roll out of MAPICS at your
companies...

TIA,
Geoff
