to Elisabeth, Re: Overall BPCS performance

["Gm" <gmont@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Elisabeth, saw your post ...

Is this product available only for the AS/400 ? Could it read Oracle using
ODBC ? I've been working with a couple of Unix implementations and Order
entry really sucks !

Can you configure the product to perform other transactions or it comes
pre-configured ? how does it actually work ?

Thanks for helping,

Gilberto
