Axapta

Microsoft® Business Solutions—Axapta® gives you the solid foundation you need to collaborate
successfully with your customers, partners, employees and
suppliers. The solution provides you with the insight and
flexibility to pursue new strategies, operate across borders,
and expand your
capabilities as your business grows.
Microsoft Business Solutions–Axapta
is a customizable, scalable and global Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) solution that supports connectivity with your
business community and helps provide you with a fast and
powerful way to gain competitive advantages.
Run
your business the way you want

Forget what
you know about customization. With Microsoft Axapta,
customization is easy. Its strong "out-of-the-box" functionality
is designed to be extended cost-effectively to suit your
individual business processes. Use the flexibility of Microsoft
Axapta to run your business the way you want to—not the way an
ERP solution tells you to. You can use the provided Microsoft
Axapta toolkit to fine-tune your solution whenever it suits you.
You decide
when you want to expand functionality based on your needs. You
can start with the basic functionality, such as Finance and
Trade, and expand with Production and Customer Relationship
Management, as your needs change and grow. There is no waiting
for an expensive upgrade. The functionality is all there in the
one installation—waiting to be turned on as the need is
identified. When the license key code for the new functionality
is entered into the Axapta installation, the functionality
automatically appears throughout the system and all data will be
synchronized between the old and new functionality.
Advanced technology supports your growing business

Microsoft Axapta is designed to scale
easily in order to support your growing business. You can add
users, additional locations and enhanced capabilities whenever
you need them. Microsoft Axapta uses Axapta Object Servers,
which can be clustered to allow load-balancing and rapid
scalability. Just add more servers to the cluster when more
capacity is needed.
Since all users, locations, and processes are run off one
database, maintenance and upgrading is usually simpler and less
expensive compared to distributed systems. Because Microsoft
Axapta supports clustering, using only one database provides
strong performance even with multiple sites in different
countries.
Connect and interact with ease

Microsoft Axapta can extend your business
processes over the Internet, so you can connect your business to
your customers, vendors and remote employees regardless of
geography. This will help you increase the speed and value of
communication, reducing transaction costs for both you and your
business partners.
You can quickly set up personalized,
role-based Web portals to deliver information and application
access over the Internet. Web portals help you simplify
communication between individuals and companies, and reduce both
the time spent on inefficient manual processes as well as the
chance for human errors in the transaction process.
Microsoft Axapta further brings new
efficiency to supply chain relationships with the ability to use
XML to electronically exchange information and conduct
transactions with your business partners, regardless of the
system they use or how they would like to communicate (for
example, through Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) systems).
Microsoft Axapta uses
the Component Object Model (COM) to seamlessly connect to other
applications, so you can benefit from information and even
functionality from COM-oriented applications such as Microsoft
Office or third-party products.
Everything in one source

Microsoft Axapta is truly an all-in-one
solution. It leverages one business logic, one code base, one
database and one toolbox to connect your business internally and
externally, and to help you recognize and take advantage of new
opportunities.
Obtain insight into all business
transactions quickly and easily. Changes to your business
information made in any location are instantly reflected across
the entire solution, including remote sites. Upgrading is simple
and fast, because updates only need to be applied once, and they
appear throughout the solution.
A global solution

Set up your solution to do business in different countries,
languages and currencies. This enables you to react
quickly to changes and pursue new market opportunities
regardless of geography.
Communicate with customers and business
partners in their own language—Microsoft Axapta has
multi-language capabilities built in. This means that you can
send invoices to your customers in their preferred language,
regardless of what language your installation of Axapta is set
up to use. You can even use different currencies for vendors and
customers in different countries, as well as automatically
reconcile fluctuations in relative currency values. It’s truly
an international solution.
One solution for multi-site operations

Manage your multi-site business efficiently with real-time
connectivity across your different locations through the one
common database. Create, update and share sales orders, purchase
orders, financial data and other information across your
locations in real time, whether they are across the street or
all over the world.
