ACQUIRE™

The Cooper Software team worked efficiently, and diligently coordinating this project – which also included other 3rd party IT vendors we have. The new technology and system is delivering real benefits to the Company and a lot of credit has to be given to the flexible manner in which the Cooper Software team were able to adapt with the changing requirements and our end customer’s changing deadlines.

Cooper Software provides a complete IFS end to end, RF barcode solution to streamline standard IFS transactions.

ACQUIRE^TM is an automated data collection solution for IFS that eliminates manual effort and data entry errors. The application seamlessly integrates with the existing IFS Applications^TM , BizAPI and Activity API layers, therefore no modifications to IFS are required. The application works across all IFS versions, and leverages IFS’s Service Oriented (SOCA) and future RF strategy.

ACQUIRE^TM is built using Microsoft .NET, Windows Mobile & Oracle database technology. The barcode application re-uses existing server infrastructure that is in place to host IFS. Cooper Software offers a complete solution, and end to end service including the installation of RF handheld devices, peripherals and associated hardware, including:

Customer and Supplier EDI Integration such as ASN, invoicing and delivery manifest automation

ACQUIRE^TM allows transactions from IFS Applications^TM to be processed using a handheld device, with different roles assigned to each user via an administration function. The transactions and roles can be customised to each client according to business process.
