Synergy ASP Pages are Easy to Create

January 12th, 2010

For customers that use Exact’s Synergy in their daily business activities, you may find it very beneficial to create custom ASP Pages for your employees.  These ASP Pages can contain information from your Accounting / Distribution / Manufacturing Modules of Exact’s Progression, Macola ES, Max or JobBoss databases.

Information from these back office systems can be presented in Synergy so your employees can stay in one software program.  This minimizes the amount of training them to access this data within your back office software.

The Donas Group can create these ASP Pages and install them on your Synergy menu or if you have basic programming skills, you may take our 25 development templates and create your specific views.  Within minutes, you may begin bringing data from your abckoffice software and displaying to your Synergy customers.

Our manual “Creating Custom ASP Pages” is available for purchase at our website www.synergyexpert.com.  A video is being created to highlight examples of custom ASP Pages and should be available on our website within 14 days.

We discovered that in the Item Location file in Macola ES (under the “Cost/Price” tab) a box for that item needs to be checked – “Price Breaks Apply”
