RF Plus™ for INFOR VISUAL ERP
RF Plus™ for Visual ERP is our best practices inventory control system created especially for users of Infor ERP Visual ( known also as Visual ERP, Visual Enterprise, or Visual Manufacturing).
RF Plus is directly integrated into Visual and allows for wireless, real-time validation and updates of inventory from receipt of goods at the dock doors through to shipping of finished goods.
This direct integration means there is no synchronization required between Visual ERP data and RF Plus. Data such as locations, purchase orders, work orders, parts information, customer orders become RF Plus data as soon as it’s entered into Visual ERP.
