Joe, we beta-tested the initial Purchasing module when MAPICS bought it from GMD, and it was SOOO bad we uninstalled it for a while while they fixed it. It's come a long way!

You are exactly right, the GMD Purchasing product was acquired by IBM in 1986. I clearly remember the bumps and bruises I received from my customers as an IBM SE when the product did not work.

Marcam purchased the rights to MAPICS from IBM in 1993. I'm trying to establish when IBM bought the rights of Purchasing from GMD. I think it was 1986. Any thoughts?

Not sure exactly where the fit into the time line but if I'm not mistaken MARCAM was a seperate entity. As best as I can remember, which is slipping faster each year. -----Original Message----- From: mapics-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Garcia, Josue - EC Newton Sent: Wed 9/7/2005 3:35 PM To: MAPICS ERP System Discussion Cc: Subject: RE: MAPICS Purchasing History Mapics was still an IBM product.

I know that it was originally written by GMD, and became part of MAPICS in 1984. But what happened to GMD? Were they acquired? Do they still exist today? When did IBM (or whomever) acquire the Purchasing "intellectual property" (source code)? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
