The certification, based on the SAP versions SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7 and mySAP ERP 2005 (ECC 6.0) and ORBIS Release 8.4, accredits the following interfaces:
- ORBIS - SAP CO (Controlling): a module which provides supporting information to management for the purpose of planning, reporting, as well as monitoring the operations of their business,
- ORBIS - SAP MM (Material Management): a module designed to cover the functionality required to purchase goods and services, manage inventory, and inspect incoming materials,
- ORBIS - SAP FI (Financial): a module designed to meet all the accounting and financial needs of an organization.
These standardized interfaces are used to transfer data from ORBIS to SAP and vice versa. This enables the user to exchange master data and dynamic data between both software systems on a defined basis. Approximately 80 customers in Europe are currently using SAP procedures in conjunction with ORBIS.
"This enhanced way of communication provides the users of both ORBIS and SAP the possibility to use the individual mature functional profiles based on standardized communication" states Volker Wetekam, Vice President of Agfa HealthCare's IT Division. "The certification is an important step in our drive to standardize our portfolio and strengthen our integration capabilities, meeting the ever increasing demand by hospitals and healthcare facilities to provide systems which work as an integral part of their installed base".
