iTOS software from iOnLogistics communicates seamlessly with other systems through proprietary middleware
Logistics service providers use various systems. Think of ERP systems, accounting packages, weighbridge systems, TMS, YMS, WMS... These automate and streamline specific business processes. But the efficiency gains only come when the different systems can communicate with each other. Therefore iOnLogistics developed its own middleware LogicApps to offer the flexibility to connect iTOS to any other system.
iOnLogistics commercialises high-performance solutions for warehouses and terminals through iTOS which is not just a complete order-to-cash tool. Thanks to the LogicApps middleware, it also communicates with the other systems.
iOnLogistics commercialises high-performance solutions for warehouses and terminals. Logistics service providers turn to the Belgian IT company for the automation of, among other things, order management, stock management, reporting, planning, invoicing, scanning and warehouse rent. All this is possible with the complete and modular order-to-cash tool iTOS. Through its own middleware, LogicApps, iTOS communicates with other systems.
A multitude of systems
The iTOS order-to-cash tool streamlines administrative, financial and goods processes. But most logistics service providers also use other systems. For example, many players use a weighbridge system, a TMS (Transport Management System) and/or a YMS (Yard Management System). A proper accounting package is a must to close the transaction (iTOS covers all processes up to invoicing).
Middleware as a connection tool
Each of these systems optimises operational efficiency, saves time and maximises returns. But... in many cases they all speak a different language. Investing in extensive digitalisation and automation therefore makes little sense for a logistics service provider, unless the systems can communicate with each other. This suddenly offers many opportunities. With this goal in mind, iOnLogistics developed its own 'middleware' under the name LogicApps. With this middleware, the connection between iTOS and any other system can be set up.
Middleware as translation tool
LogicApps can be seen as a kind of translation tool. The middleware makes sure systems can receive and read each others information. When you set all the parameters correctly, this happens fully automatically. iTOS sends and receives everything in the background, without any human intervention. As a logistics service provider, you reap the benefits of real-time automation, time savings and reduced errors.
iTOS is not just a complete order-to-cash tool. Thanks to the LogicApps middleware, it also communicates with the other systems. Interested? Please contact us.
