RE: Web Order Entry -- BPCS-L

Karen,

We have successfully deployed Lansa Smart Web product in a production environemnt at our subsidiary in Brazil. It has been operational for over 1 year. We also have a test and development environment in English and Spanish, which we plan to roll out in the near future in the US and Spanish Latin America. I'm not a consultant wanting to sell you something, I'm just a user who has actually done it. I'll be more than happy to talk to you about some of our experiences and if you have the time, may put you in contact with our Web administrator to give you a Webex demo.

A number of things helped in the decision making process: 1. The fact that Lansa has been developing for BPCS for a long, long time. This certainly gave me some confort level as I know the quality code they in fact produce. 2. The fact that their product was an "out of the box" solution integrated with BPCS. We actually made some modifications to the code to address some company-specific requirements, but most of it was ready to go right after the installation. 3. The Lansa suite of products is very powerfull which provided a very good development environment (with the exception of that "development dungle...") 4. They provide very good tech support.

By the way... the Lansa product not only provides for web order entry, but also customer account status, inventory balances, automatic eMail notifications to customers with order status, etc., etc.

I hope this helps.

Greetings,

I am investigating various web order entry products for getting our inside
sales and customers the ability to enter orders into BPCS via a browser.
Any recommendations out there?

Also, has any one heard of or is anyone using Hi Volume Order Entry
fromSSA / BPCS, Tradepaq Confirm, or a BPCS / SSA web faced order entry?
I'd very much appreciate your input!
