IPOL is a web browser-based version of our Inventory Pro System.
It has the same functionality as Inventory Pro for WindowsTM plus much more! IPOL can be run on a local Intranet (internal use only) or globally on the Internet/World Wide Web (www). It also can be run by itself (stand-alone) or can be integrated with the standard SQL ServerTM Edition of Inventory Pro.
IPOL provides your business with an affordable business to business (B2B), e-commerce, and business to commerce (B2C) inventory program. This allows your staff, suppliers, customers, and potential customers to see the data they need in real time-no matter where they are in the world! All they need is an authenticated connection to your network. IPOL will assist you in the management of your business logistics including movement and exchange of products, services, and money.
 Built-in Communication
Since IPOL is accessible via the Internet, authorized users
with a computer can access any data needed to carry out tasks
with maximum efficiency. There is no need to install and
maintain complex interbusiness networks in diverse parts of
the world. Dial-up connections through any standard internet
service provider (ISP) like America On-lineTM, CompuServe,
Prodigy, or a local ISP will suffice in gaining access to the
system. For example, a warehouse manager in Singapore could
use his local computer to determine the exact position and
cargo manifest of a ship thousands of miles away.
Minimal Training Required
The IPOL user interface is based on standard Internet
browser (NetscapeTM or Internet ExplorerTM) technology.
Anyone familiar with “surfing” the Internet will
not have difficulty accessing the wealth of information
in IPOL. An HTML interface, complete with
hyperlinks and built-in help screens, connects the users
with their data.
Communication Throughout the Entire Business Cycle
IPOL streamlines and improves internal company communications
by allowing everyone to see the data in real time.
IPOL also brings your suppliers and customer into the communications
“loop” through controlled access (username and
password) to only the parts of the system you want them to
see. This facilitates vendor managed inventory (VMI) of vital
supplies to your existing processes without having “annoying”
vendor phone calls and on-site visits to count and inspect
current inventory levels.
Quick to Set Up and Use with Minimal Maintenance
IPOL does not need to be installed on client PCs. The
master system resides permanently on your server (or
CISS’s server if we host the application for you), and
the installation procedure consists only of receiving an
access username/password. The user simply types the
URL (web address) of the system into Netscape or
Internet Explorer to gain access to the login screen.
This provides you with minimal overhead in deploying
the application to your user community. Updates to
the system are only applied to the server, and visits to
client PCs are never required. This is a support person’s
dream!
