Accelerating MFG/PRO Integration
Global 2000 manufacturing companies rely on software technology from MFG/PRO to optimize their financial and industrial operations enterprise performance strategies with Internet-enabled solutions. The iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO is an off-the-shelf solution that simplifies the process of real-time integration of MFG/PRO with other systems. The iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO enables an organization to fully integrate its MFG/PRO products with virtually any other legacy mainframe system, DBMS, data warehouse, EDI, B2B, ERP, SCM, CRM, or financial application on any platform. High-speed, low-impact, non-intrusive access to MFG/PRO exposes the critical business logic and data contained with MFG/PRO for immediate integration with other applications. This removes the need for costly point-to-point computing environments that are often restrictive and provide little flexibility for change.
The iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO provides a proven, easy to use, cost-effective architecture that:
- Protects your organization's investment in legacy systems
- Reduces the cost of your integration projects
- Provides the infrastructure to manage change in a volatile business environment
Key features of the iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO include:
- Support for synchronous and asynchronous interactions between MFG/PRO applications and other applications or middleware
- Data exchange between MFG/PRO eB2 and other applications; though developed for eB2, this adapter tool can be used by lower versions of MFG/PRO with few changes to the XML input documents
- Support for the transformation of XML documents that contain event information
In conjunction with the iWay RDBMS adapter, the adapter for MFG/PRO can pull the MFG/PRO events database at user-configured time intervals and translate the event information to XML.
The iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO uses native MFG/PRO sessions, data interchange interfaces, and metadata to capture MFG/PRO application events and exchange messages and transactions between MFG/PRO applications and other iWay Intelligent Adapters. The iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO supports the following service (inbound) and event (outbound) integration operations using any number of transport protocols:
- Service. Receives an XML service request document on an iWay listener, transforms the document into the appropriate API calls required by MFG/PRO to run specific business functions, connects to a MFG/PRO application to invoke the generated application logic, formats the result as an XML document, and returns it to the appropriate application
- Event. Receives an event from an internally triggered MFG/PRO mechanism, such as update customer record, and sends the document to the appropriate application
By interfacing directly with the MFG/PRO application sessions at design time, the iWay Intelligent Adapter for MFG/PRO can use standard or custom MFG/PRO business objects and components to generate all necessary request and response documents for services and events used in runtime integration with MFG/PRO applications.
