The GL Company® Announces Availability of the Manufacturing Module within Their Inquiry Suite Solution for JD Edwards®


LONDON, March 9/-- Inquiry Suite's Manufacturing module offers operational users a real-time solution to manage their information and meet their reporting, query, reconciliation, integrity and analysis needs.

The GL Company, the leading provider of Business Process Optimisation Software, announces availability of their new Manufacturing module; the latest offering within their Inquiry Suite solution for JD Edwards software.

Users running their manufacturing operations recognise the value of the transactional and cost information stored within their manufacturing systems. However, the answers to business questions are often challenging to extract - especially on a real-time, ad-hoc basis. The ever-changing nature of manufacturing analysis means that pre-canned reports often fall short of answering important business questions in areas like manufacturing variances and cost accounting. Simple and immediate access to information enables users to make the really important decisions that will drive their business goals and objectives.

Inquiry Suite is user-friendly, like a spreadsheet tool, while honoring security and data integrity. Therefore, end-users have the capability to create their own reports and inquiries to analyse, reconcile and audit information with never-before-experienced ease. Users gain efficiencies and reduce costs with the ability to compare and contrast information over their branch plants, item masters, jobs and work orders. They can make better decisions when they are easily identifying and analysing a Bill of Material's items, sub-assembly components, parts lists and labour routings. Accuracy is increased when users can highlight exceptions and cost variances and drill down into the detailed transactions to investigate further.

According to Scott Franchini, Managing Partner of Encompass Consulting Group (www.encompasscg.com), "The number one issue facing most cost accountants using JD Edwards is the ability to understand and dissect manufacturing variances. Often, standard inquiry screens and reports provide insufficient detail requiring hours of research and custom report development. Inquiry Suite's Manufacturing module is the first out of the box solution I have seen that allows end-users to create their own reports and inquiries. A cost accountant has immediate visibility into manufacturing data such as production throughput, material usage, and labor efficiency, enabling meaningful decisions and thoughtful analysis."

Glenn Wirick, Director of Client Services for The GL Company, agrees. "The largest benefit I see our client's gain from the usage of our solution is productivity and efficiency. Inquiry Suite's simple and immediate access to our client's manufacturing data means they spend more time making informed and strategic decisions, not downloading, printing and manipulating data."
