Global ERP Projects
ABAS provides an unique ERP package for global customers through its multi-country functionality and global partner network. ABAS is uniquely qualified to successfully implement international projects. No other company has the combination of an unified partner network, strategic orientation, globally enabled software, and global implementation methodology that defines the roadmap to success. ABAS provides quick ROI in that it is easy to learn, use, customize and upgrade. More than 2,300 customers have chosen ABAS as their long term ERP provider and work successfully with the internationally applicable abas Business Software. 17.03. 2010ABAS - registered Wordmark
10.03. 2010Satisfied customers since 1986Karlsruhe, March 5th, 2010 - Heless, located in Germany, has been producing doll's accessories and toys for girls for over 60 years. Today, the family company is successfully managed by Beate Becker. It was she who, as a young boss in 1983, decided to lead the midsize company into the age of electronic data processing. The young businesswoman did not select one of the usual software solutions by one of the large hardware manufacturers like Siemens, IBM or Nixdorf, but gave the newcomer ABAS a chance. A decision she did not regret.
Selecting an independent software vendor
"We had a long ERP selection process. In August 1983 we called for bids in collaboration with a consultant. Previously we had a look at various solutions at CeBIT fair in Germany. At that time, ERP systems as we know them today did not exist. Back then the large hardware providers were also providing the IT solution. Accordingly, we first talked to companies such as Siemens and Olivetti. This dragged on for quite some time. After two years we almost signed with a large provider. However, when we went to sign the contract, we didn't feel like a customer but more like an applicant. Various contractual specifications didn't seem appropriate. We reconsidered our decision. Our consultant then pointed out that it was also possible to buy a software independent of the hardware. This was an entirely different approach. According to my knowledge, there were only two companies in Germany at that time which provided a solution for business planning independent of the hardware: Roth and ABAS.
A time of change: from typewriters to electronic data processing"In October 1986 we had our first meeting with ABAS, almost three years after our call for bid. The requirements specification was used as basis for our collaboration. We went through it item by item. Almost everything that we needed had to be developed. It was a time of change, the conversion from typewriter to electronic data processing. I had just taken over the company from my mom and as a "young boss" I had to convince many of the long-established employees with my modern approaches, such as IT implementation. One employee even said she wanted to resign if we would start processing data electronically.
An inspiring synergy: ABAS and its customers
"In the past years, ABAS has grown with its customers and customers have grown with ABAS. I always appreciated this approach. We, the Heless GmbH, compared to ABAS, had a more relaxed growth and were quite successful. ABAS is a part of our company and we have trusted them for over 20 years. I regularly attend the customer forum to get information about innovations. Many features and functions are added every year. IT is an essential part of a company. We don't need most of these features as a small company, but some of the things have provided us with a competitive edge."
No new data migration for over 20 years"For us it was a huge benefit that we started using ABAS early on. We have an IT environment that we never had to change. I know some companies that had to change their system, some of them even several times. Every time this means a lot of working hours for the employees. We have been working with ABAS since 1986 and never had to migrate our data." (te/jaja)

Quicksearch in ABAS Business Software - Functions
The new abas search engine is based on the open source poject – Apache Lucene.
Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured text search engine library written entirely in Java. It is a technology suitable for nearly any application that requires full-text search, especially cross-platform. One of the new search engine's functions allows the index of abas data by configuring what could be indexed while the search itself is web based.
The search requires only a few words to provide satisfying results.
Similar documents A document is tested for frequently occurring terms here. A search with these terms will then be executed. The words highlighted in the result demonstrate due to which words found documents are considered similar.
The search itself can be integrated in the abas window and therefore can always be available or it could be set as a seperate internet page. The option to generate a link which would then open the appropriate abas window is one of the useful functions available. The search uses its own index database, so the search speed is greater without causing any negative effect ot the abas database during the search. The opening of new windows as well as the need to define search criteria is not required. The search is being performed simultaneously in the whole abas structure, for example it could be performed in “Customers” and “Parts” The index can be constantly renewed according to your requirements. While searching, it's irelevant whether the searched word is written using capital or small letters.
09.11.2009 Quick search in abas Business Software
Search engine expanded by many useful details
Karlsruhe, november 5th, 2009 - New functions optimize search comfort in abas Business Software (ERP, PPC, MRP, eBusiness). Users can now benefit from a a structured or an unstructured full text search and manifold sorting options when wanting to quickly find data. The abas search engine is similar to established Internet search engines and can be used immediately.
Using your time effectivelyAccording to business statistics, most employees spend an average of 30 minutes per day to search for information. A modern ERP system considerably reduces the search duration. This effect can be further increased if the system, such as abas Business Software, includes comfortable search tools. Full text search in abas ERP
Just like well-established Internet search engines it is possible to carry out a full text search in the entire abas ERP system. In doing so it does not matter whether the search is structured or not. Terms are also searched in the entire ERP system. For example: searching for all products containing the word "thread". Results are listed according to relevance. The abas search engine also searches for structured criteria. Thus, users define characteristics which will restrict the search in advance. The "thread" from the unstructured search would then for example only be searched in the main warehouse.
Fuzzy searchThe search engine also supports a search if a word has e.g. been misspelled. Despite incorrectly entered data, this so-called fuzzy search also provides results in which the search term occurs in a similar spelling. An advanced search can also be performed in these results and the abas search engine will sort the hits according to individual sorting criteria.

25.02.2009 ABAS brings process oriented architecture (POA) to a new dimension live at CeBit 2009Karlsruhe, February 27th, 2009 – ABAS and their global software partners will present further developments of its abas Business Software at this year’s CeBIT: Hall 5 / Booth A18.  This Workbench, similar to the view of a pilot, is designed to help abas users collect and process information and respond to it quickly. In the past, complicated commands and multiple windows limited the users’ ability with early ERP-Systems. Today, with abas Business Software, the user is able to complete all their tasks with in one pre-configured or customized Workbench. Process Oriented Architecture (POA) and the high flexibility of abas Business Software meet every industry’s requirements. During implementation, customers pick from a series of processes to define their business model and the deployment of the system is derived from a small set of these process oriented flows to significantly decrease implementation time and cost. Training becomes a simple task, processes are managed through a single and intuitive screen.
28.01.2009 CeBIT 2009: ABAS in Hall 5, Stand A18
CeBIT, the most important trade fair for the digital industry, will take place in Hanover from March 3rd to the 8th, 2009. Together with its sales partners, ABAS Software AG will present the newest innovations for abas Business Software (ERP, PPC, MRP, eBusiness) in hall 5 at stand A18. The focus of the presentation will be innovations and improvements in the areas of eBusiness, web portals, PPC, and databases. abas eBusiness: Comfortable upgradeWith the new version of abas eB, upgrades can now be executed more quickly and easily. Application customizations, such as service processing or Webshop, will remain. Users are therefore always participating in the technological and functional progress of abas eB software.
Dashboards for data viewing Improved database performance
The new version of abas Business Software was able to further improve the performance and scalability of the abas individual database. The database scales considerably better with regard to the number of available CPUs (Central Processing Units). Read access is no longer carried out via the database server, but rather is conducted directly by the clients. Firstly, this lightens the load on the database, and secondly, it uses the multiprocessor more efficiently.
New sales planning/revenue planningThe new abas ERP sales planning/revenue planning application now contributes to the greatest planning security possible. Sales figures for a future time period can be planned flexibly. Whether it’s one year, one month or one week – any time period can be selected. The application is even flexible for data yet to be planned. New data, for example, can therefore be used as a basis for planning, just as can data from similar or already existing products. Both individual items as well as item groups can generally be planned. In addition, certain client groups can be planned specifically with regard to the region or client. The actual values, however, always contradict the target figures. A comparison between the target values and actual values can be conducted quickly and easily. Since the plans are archived, even outdated values can be included. The sales planning/revenue planning can be constructed as a hierarchy. The new function range is connected to all other ranges of abas Business Software such as abas Corridor Controlling, for instance. Further information on ABAS:
28.01.2009 New abas portal version is available.The last version of abas portal based on last development of Liferay portal is on-line. This version except content management functionary, which is used for this web site , there is additional portlets which allows you to examine abas-ERP databases and infosystems in a web browser. You can build queries and infosystem calls, or you can write Groovy scripts to combine and process data from different abas-ERP clients or other data sources. Results of a query, infosystem or script can be rendered in different representations like HTML, XML, or atom (RSS).
Every configuration (e.g. a query and its representation) is accessible by a web service client through its specific URL. Thus it is possible to process data from abas-ERP in every client capable of dealing with web services, like programming or script languages. An outstanding example for such a client is abas-Portal and its abas-ERP portlets.
By providing a RESTful service all characteristics of a REST based architecture - security, scalability, and usability - allow to connect a client to abas-ERP with minimal effort.
