Announcing OSAS Garment Management Version 6.1a The primary change in this version is that it has the ability to interface with version 6.1 of the standard Open Systems© General Ledger, Accts Receivable, and Accts Payable. See below for a list of changes and enhancements to OSAS GM. For enhancements to applications other than Garment Management, see attachment. One of the biggest differences is the optional ability to see screens in what is called “GUI” (Graphical User Interface) mode. Of course this ability only applies to those running Windows operating system. If you run Unix, Linux or AIX, your screens will have the text look and feel you are familiar with. It should be noted that this version (6.1a) of the GM module cannot be run in GUI mode for ALL programs, (although AP, AR and GL applications can). Only selected programs can optionally be seen in gui mode. Version 6.1b will have full GUI capabilities for ALL functions and is free of charge (when it is fully available) to those already having 6.1a.

EDI Completely revised! We now use a third party outside mapping service (ISS Corp), so that we can interface with ANY Trading Partner very quickly and easily. Because OSAS no longer retains any mapping specs for all the various department stores, versions and transaction sets, EDI (within OSAS) is greatly simplified. However, this does require you to establish a relationship with ISS. They will become your VAN as well as your mapping service. They are a great company to work with. Ability to trade with ANY Trading Partner Ability to trade ANY transaction set. (Mostly using the ISS software now) New versions automatically upgraded by ISS Corp on your behalf] Greatly reduced both the purchase price and the annual maintenance on the EDI module. BUG FIXES Many minor fixes AS ALWAYS... This release is intended to be installed with Ver 6.1 of Open Systems Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, General Ledger and Resource Manager. Contact your OSAS dealer or us for these modules.
