Provides Quick Paths to Profit-Optimizing Process, Organization Adjustments

COSTA MESA, Calif. - October 19, 2007 -SYSPRO, a provider of visionary ERP for the manufacturing pragmatist, announced today the availability of SYSPRO Sales Analysis, a software solution that enables manufacturers of food products to gain rapid insight into fast-growth and profit opportunities based on consumer trending, geographic preferences, global supply chain dynamics and other financial and non-financial metrics. SYSPRO Sales Analysis is tightly integrated into the company's enterprise resource planning solution, including Accounts Receivable, Inventory Control and Sales Orders modules

The food industry is one of SYSPRO's four solution targets in the mid-market sector, where the company's robust solutions are preferred by pragmatic manufacturing and distribution industry executives. Todd Perlman, principal of Business Technology Partners, a SYSPRO reseller, says the company's solutions are finding preference with a wide range of small-to-medium size food manufacturers. "These smaller firms still want to compete on an equal footing with much larger food manufacturers, but they find the tier one ERP vendor solutions too expensive to install, too expensive to maintain and often lagging in functionality geared to mid-market companies. Solutions like SYSPRO Sales Analysis and SYSPRO Trade Promotion Management provide fast results and incredible value to them."

SYSPRO Trade Promotion Management was announced in 2004 to provide price relief to food manufacturers in the $10-$250 million category who previously paid priestly sums to integrate promotion management solutions into back-end ERP systems.

SYSPRO Sales Analysis enables food manufacturers to gain role-based, digital or hard-copy analytics report access to a wide range of information that impacts both top- and bottom-line financials. Through the SYSPRO Sales Analysis module, food company executives can:
identify their most profitable customers;
know which products are selling;
analyze market trends by geographic buying patterns;
calculate profits by each product;
determine buying patterns by product division;
identify individual sales performance statistics;
generate sales forecasting;
measure plan to performance metrics;
analyze tax collections, and
set customer/product targets by product group, geographic divisions and/or individual sales representatives.

SYSPRO's more thoughtful approach to adopting new web services and SOA platforms reflects the cautionary desires of its mid-market manufacturing and distribution company customers, who are driven by business needs, and not by the latest headlines. SYSPRO calls its buyer landscape "PragmaVision" (TM) -- pragmatic, but visionary ERP executives that are driven by a desire for smart, but aggressive market growth.
