February 12, 2015 11:56 am

 Business application software provider Infor announced an enhanced version of Infor LN, delivering deeper vertical and micro-vertical functionality within manufacturing, with the goal of helping better align customers with business objectives and reducing the need for costly customisation.
Infor LN is now multi-tenant enabled to support the industry specific needs of Infor CloudSuites. Infor believes that no two clouds are alike, so the latest iteration of Infor LN utilises a tailored approach, helping customers focus on the unique manufacturing needs of their organisation.
This update of Infor LN was designed with customer feedback in mind and provides functional enhancements to order management, invoicing, procurement, warehouse management, project planning and quality management.
Infor LN is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution that is aimed at managing everything from design to delivery, with a specialised out-of-the-box approach that is customised for a specific industry or micro-vertical. Infor LN is available to customers via a cloud-hosted or on-premise deployment to better meet individual business requirements. The revamped user experience is designed by Hook & Loop, Infor’s in-house creative agency.
“Customers come to us with specific micro-verticals needs, seeking to improve operations and while many challenges are similar, they do not want to customize our software to meet their industry specific requirements. That is why the latest version of Infor LN has been optimised to offer a tailored approach for enhancing operational efficiency for specific discrete manufacturers,” said Edward Talerico, industry director, Infor.
According to said Kimberly Knickle, Practice Director and Robert Parker, Group Vice President, International Data Corporation (IDC), “Infor’s investments are essential to the transition manufacturers should make in modernizing their applications and their enterprise architecture.”
