Tayana Solutions: Acumatica Process Management (APM)
Overview
​
This Acumatica Based ERP Package for Process Manufacturing (Tayana Process Management) is for midsize process manufacturers such as food processing, chemical processing, and other process based manufacturers that use formula/recipe management. It enables your company to manage your finances (GL, cash management, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable), your distribution (inventory management, sales order management, purchase order management), your CRM and your process manufacturing. This is all one system that runs in the cloud, and has a mobile application. You can access it at anytime from anywhere from any device. This alone may cut your operation costs by 50%. This ERP package can easily be customized by non-IT people to address your specific needs. The licensing fee is way below the competition over a span of 5 years.
