Abel is able to interoperate and coexist with Web Services (XML, WSDL, SOAP). Web services are a set of technology standards rapidly emerging as the leading model for encapsulating business processes and sharing them with other systems.

 

Abel’s integrated Smart Thin Client technology enables high speed, high efficiency operation over LANs, WANs and the internet. The Smart Thin Client can run natively under Windows, or in a portable mode on any compatible Java-enabled Windows or Linux platform. As a result, fast, fully functional Abel operation can be achieved in any location, over almost any public or private network, at low cost, and high speed.

 

Whether you are picking stock on the warehouse floor, delivering orders to customers in a van or are a salesperson on the road, Abel can work with a mobile solution to meet your needs. The use of notebooks from remote locations, using wireless networks or traditional land-line and radio networks, enables Abel to be used anywhere you need to be.

 

Serious procurements and purchasing is more than just interfaces and fibre optics. Abel uses its Application Engine to make online purchasing and procurement a seamless operation, eliminating the paper shuffling, rekeying of data and duplication. Incoming Abel orders can be automatically processed and distributed to multiple locations with multiple contacts, confirmations can be automatically sent back to the customer and invoices built and sent back to recipients, all electronically and automatically without any duplication or rekeying. For operations that require a smooth, automated and integrated transition from the electronic order to the customer delivery in a business-to-business environment, Abel can deliver the goods.
