SAP approves automotive functionality for Business One
SAP recently certified new small and midsized industry-specific software for its Business One suite, aimed at aftermarket companies in the automotive industry.
The software was produced through SAP's channel partner program, which was launched to boost industry-specific functionality in SAP software in the midmarket.
Developed by Praxis Software, NetPoint Commerce provides an integrated online sales framework that enables aftermarket companies to create up-selling and cross-selling opportunities. The software includes search capabilities to track and find highly specialized automotive parts and features.
Parts Planner, a product from Valogix, enables small and midsized aftermarket companies connect with sales data to research current sales levels and predict future demand for automotive products and services. Users can generate real-time reports that recommend stocking levels and dates for inventory replenishment orders. This will lower inventory investments, replenishment expenditures and costs from emergency shipments.
The software will be offered through SAP Business One resellers.

The software enables data to be transferred automatically among an intermittently connected offshore frigate, several land-based command and control systems, and the central SAP instance at the command center.
The software helped coordinate logistics between 18 nations and agencies actively participating in the exercise, SAP said. The software met NATO data transfer standards while handling logistic assistance requests and tasking orders.
