Re: [BPCS-L] why migrate

[Alister Wm Macintyre <macwheel99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is possible to do concurrent operations in BPCS.
Put a negative number in the days from one operation to the next.

I have seen a lot of articles by people who say the advantage of this 
product or language over some other one is because ... then they list stuff 
the other one cannot do, and when I am familiar with the other everything 
on the list is something I am using the other for.
