Connection to ERP software

with the epos Hazardous Substances Manager

Integration of Hazardous Substance Management into company software via web service interfaces.

The integration of Hazardous Substance Management into existing systems is no longer a problem. Freely available web services (interfaces) are open for all applications and can be adapted to customer requirements.

The epos Hazardous Substances Manager provides web service interfaces in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) for the integration of safety data for business processes. Via the user interface – for example of the ERP – data is imported from or exported to the epos Hazardous Substances Manager.

This connection avoids redundant data maintenance. Customer and product data can be transferred easily.

The epos Hazardous Substances Manager ensures perfect interaction between hazardous substance management and in-house software, e.g.:

Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision)
Microsoft Dynamics AX
SAP Business One
SAP R/3
Sage ERP
Pro Alpha

AlphaPlan
Ebsoft
Nicelabel
or other company-specific software

As a result, safety data sheets, for example, can be created or printed directly from the ERP.

Practical example

Our customer “Düsseldorf” has been creating safety data sheets with epos Hazardous Substances Manager since 1998. The sales department, which did not have access to epos Hazardous Substances Manager and could only distribute SDSs in paper form, requested PDF documents for easy onward distribution.

“In the end, the wish of our sales department was a valuable hint to also take a closer look at other processes in the company. After all, it should be possible to access relevant information at the right time and in the right place.

Today, we develop our formulas in the ERP and transfer them to the epos Hazardous Substances Manager via interfaces. Product safety employees then create the safety data sheets. By making full use of the scope of services – the automatic filling of sections including automatic classification (SDS Wizard module) – current SDSs are also available to our sales department in a timely manner.

If a prospective customer now calls, the sales department is able to create an individual SDS as a PDF document via the ERP. With just a few clicks, he can specify details about the company, product, product number, output language and layout. And just minutes later, the SDS is sent to the interested party by e-mail.

A professional image – thanks to shorter response times to enquiries – is a decisive result of the epos Hazardous Substances Manager“.
