CEOs were also able to choose from a wide range of presentations, tailored to their needs.

abas-Business-Suite

The new abas Business Suite is more than just an ERP system. In a live demo on the first day of abas 360°, all business processes, from sales and distribution to production and accounting were demonstrated in the software. This live demo also included further applications, which exceed pure ERP functionality but are required to manage processes. Business intelligence, DMS and eBusiness, also integrated into abas Business Suite, were demonstrated. This allowed for the creation of a customized workplace for every area of the virtual company in a role-based manner, right before participants‘ eyes.
 

Innovations in function areas

Attendees were also able to attend lectures on abas Business Software innovations in various function areas. For example, the new portal applications in purchasing and sales where information is bundled in a screen and the employee can trigger further actions from the screen or call numerous analysis.

The lecture on 'mobile applications' was also very well received.  The mobile sales and service solutions, which support sales and service employees when visualizing and editing data, based on abas eB, were presented. The new logistics concept, NLK by Volkswagen, an industry specific solution included in abas Automotive, was also addressed at abas 360°. In the accounting area, many visitors were interested in the E-balance sheet which will soon be mandatory in countries such as Germany.

More and more companies from non-German speaking countries are also among abas Business Software users.  abas customers from Spain, Turkey, Italy, Hungary, the USA and more were among the attendees as well as presenters. Best-practices from various industries such as production, automotive, and electronics were showcased by customers like Rob Honeycut, Co-President from Saferack Loading Rack Technologies (USA).
