Grasp the data with Analytics and keep track of the Angels’ Share.

Systems are inevitably data driven and the more data you hold, the harder it is to fully grasp what the data is telling you.

We’re very pleased to announce the release of our latest integration software, the ERP API (Enterprise Resource Planning Application Programming Interface), which is now included as part of our standard package.

Driven by .CSV files, the API is run from the Windows command line using Windows Task Scheduler or process automation tools. For testing and ad-hoc interfacing, the command line can be entered manually.

Using the new ERP API, integrating the Bulk Planning application with your ERP system has never been simpler!
