Re: iSeries Package Question

I think the reference is to a SW package that already has the hooks or 
interfaces to another package so someone doesn't have to spend a lot of 
time building a custom interface between the apps.

Something like SW package A is an Inventory App  while the Shipping SW is 
from another vendor but works seamlessly with A and very little 
customizing had to be done.

Re: iSeries Package Question







Never heard of a package. I wonder if they mean 'bolt on' like bolting on
something to an existing system?

And of course you could just nod your head sagely and tell said pimpette
yes...then figure it out later.

Oh Great And Powerful Members Of The List,


I have been approached by a pimpette about some work in the area at a
company specializing in the retail environment.  One of the requirements 

is

for "Bolt-On".  I have never heard of this.  Oh, sure, we can bolt stuff 

on

all the time.  Is this a retail software package?  The pimpette, of 

course,

is clueless and is reading the requirements from a spec sheet.
