Re: For those moving off BPCS

Actually, I do not know enough about BPCS to bash them.    I have a client
that is running BPCS.

Their problem is that they need to move from a P20 system to P30 and are
going to hit with new licensing costs.  In addition to moving them from
these two systems this client is going to be moving from v4r5 to v5r2.
The question I would like to know is how do we do this that is best for him.
My management suggests moving to VAI.  I was hoping for feedback from
somebody who knows enough about VAI and (of course) BPCS to give me some
insite.

Didn't mean to cause a stire.
