New Dimension Software has announced the certification of Control-D Option for R/3 by the SAP R/3 certification team in Germany. The SAP-certified interface is the result of a cooperative agreement between SAP and New Dimension. The solution increases the output management flexibility and reliability achievable in implementations of SAP`s ERP business application suite. It applies to all vertical components of the ERP suite, which includes R/3 Manufacturing, R/3 Financials and R/3 Human Resources, and adheres to all technical standards.
Control-D Option for R/3 is an optional component of Control-D`s Unix and/or NT resident solution and is an integrated part of New Dimension`s Enterprise Output Management suite. This solution provides complete management of SAP-generated report output, using SAP`s standard BC-XOM interface. It addresses the following output management related disciplines: ownership and lifecycle assignment, storage and archive, distribution and print, and end-user customer access.
"We have seen the critical role advanced systems management tools play in the successful implementation of SAP R/3," says Darroll Buytenhuys, president of New Dimension. "With SAP we are providing solutions that address the issues and challenges involved in these implementations."
Enterprise Output Management provides organisations with a set of tools for consolidated output management. Its architecture allows data centre personnel to manage all aspects of both SAP and non-SAP output. Business-oriented output access, manipulation, analysis and presentation facilities allow end-users to view and analyse reports and document data. Web and desktop technology is exploited to maximise user productivity and reduce the overall cost of processing output.
"ERP application packages such as SAP R/3 are an important part of an organisation`s business processes. As a result, IT professionals face the challenge of effectively managing these applications as part of the enterprise," says Gary Leibowitz, VP marketing for New Dimension.
New Dimension products are distributed in South Africa by Software Futures, a subsidiary of Computer Configurations Holdings.
