New Dimension Software, An Oracle Cooperative Applications Initiative(SM) CAI) Partner, Announces Integration Of Control-M(R) Option With Oracle Applications
Extends Integration Between New Dimension Software Products And Oracle Applications Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Solution
TEL AVIV, Israel, Feb. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- New Dimension Software (Nasdaq: DDDDF) today announced that the Oracle Cooperative Applications Initiative (SM) (CAI) approved New Dimension Software's CONTROL-M Option for integration with Oracle Applications. This integration is the culmination of efforts made by New Dimension Software and Oracle experts to prepare the much- needed interface in response to customer demand.
The integration process is part of New Dimension Software's membership in the Cooperative Applications Initiative (CAI). CONTROL-M Option for Oracle Applications allows New Dimension Software's CONTROL-M enterprise production control and scheduling software to support the Oracle Applications, a suite of products that includes Oracle Manufacturing(R), Oracle Financials(R) and Oracle Human Resources Management System, among others.
