Changing visualization into reality

The enhanced visibility and presentation of infor-

mation that comes with SYSPRO 6.1 provides for

an improved user-experience, transparent man-agement and co-ordination at all levels within

the organization.

The process of turning visualization into reality is

accessible to the end user - without the need

for a high level of technical expertise. Users are

empowered with the freedom to view the infor-

mation they require in any application within

SYSPRO.

There is no restriction on where the information is

sourced, or the technology used to present theinformation. The SYSPRO 6.1 infrastructure ena-

bles information from any source to be visible in

a SYSPRO application. For example, the user can

view SYSPRO Analytics or any workflow process

www.syspro.com3

directly in another SYSPRO program, such as Sales

Order Entry.

Users can make use of pre-configured templates

when defining various applications such as dash-

boards, roles and responsibilities, KPIs and reports.

Alternatively, they could create new appl ications

written in any .net language and render these in

the core SYSPRO product.

SYSPRO 6.1 uses Fluent User Interface components

which have been developed to meet Microsoft

Office 2007 UI Design Guideline specifications.

This provides the user with a more universal and

familiar interface.

Any personalizations are seamlessly migrated

with SYSPRO upgrades.

Centralized administration

SYSPRO is becoming increasingly sophisticated

in terms of flexible set-up and security options.

SYSPRO 6.1 allows users to configure these

security options and enable all customiza-

tion of the User Interface at the role level.

There is a centralized administration appli-

cation that manages all the security and a

centralized tool that manages all the User

Interface changes.

Enterprise Performance Managementinformation at your fingertips

SYSPRO 6.1 provides a personalized user experi-

ence by allowing users to create and modify

executive views and dashboards in any appli-

cation. There are standard views provided with

the software that are based on sophisticated

list views and interactive charts; these can be

deployed in a few seconds and will be active

immediately as they use real-time information.

SYSPRO Enterprise Analysis and Model ing (SEAM)

provides empowered, personalized implemen-

tations. It embraces SYSPRO Process Modeling

(SPM) and can be used to record all discussions

and decisions made during sales and implemen-

tation. This information can be utilized to config-

ure the SYSPRO application and provide insight

into the structuring of the associated data.

tion of SYSPRO Workflow Services (SWS), SYSPRO

processes. This is based on Microsoft technol-

ogy.

ured and modeled process patterns on which

the user can model the companys unique

process requirements. It provides the user with

a model-driven architecture that supports man-

agement by aligning IT with company strat-

egy, business objectives and sustainability.

Personalization and power-tailoring

Our customers increasingly expect a greater level

of personalization from the solutions they buy.

They expect control over the look-and-feel of the

user interface and want to be able to incorpo-

rate their own data and their own special ways of

processing that data in SYSPRO.

SYSPRO recognizes this need and has devel-

oped an innovative, highly configurable User

Interface (UI) that can be tailored according to

users needs. SYSPRO 6.1 allows users to modify

the behavior of any SYSPRO application and to

extend business functionality. The end result is a

highly configurable system designed to adapt

as business needs evolve. Such changes are not

affected by software upgrades.

SYSPRO 6.1 also allows users to present informa-

tion in the graphical format of their choice byusing a combination of standards-based func-

tionality. Each user is therefore able to shape their

own aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-understand

graphical format.
