High-Performance ERO/SAP IntegrationDo you not only manage your own stock but also that of other owners? No problem! OpenTAS offers service providers extensive possibilities. These range from separate accounting by means of easily connecting different customers’ SAP systems, to external access to current information on stocks and movements via the internet. This information is so detailed that your customer can independently check, at any time, whether a truck has already left the plant. Now that’s 100% service. Thanks to its ERP integration, OpenTAS not only manages quantity income but also cash income. This enables service fee handling, for example.
