"Just start from any SAP ERP module and build upon it," said DeeDee Kato, Director of Marketing at Synactive. "Liquid UI connects to SAP ERP via highly efficient native connectivity protocols, without the need for browsers, Web servers, ITS, or the Sybase® Unwired Platform. An additional benefit to the connectivity protocol is that all existing SAP security and authorizations remain intact."



"Creating the best possible SAP ERP experience for all touch points, including all iOS devices, remains our focus" said Thomas Ewe, CEO and founder of Synactive, Inc. "We're seeing companies moving away from expensive handheld scanners to more cost-effective iOS devices.

Additional features introduced in the Liquid UI Platform include:

• Encryption, ensuring the connection from a device to the SAP system is stable and secure

• Workflow integration through email that launches Liquid UI for quick approvals
