Open Source ERP Software Overview for IBM I

LANSA ERP Frameworks

Open Source Enterprise Resource Planning Software for IBM i

Comprehensive ERP with Rich Functionality

LANSA’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software is an open source enterprise resource planning software solution for IBM i (System i, iSeries, AS/400). It is a comprehensive, enterprise-wide business solution with rich business functionality, an Executive Dashboard, Advanced Workflow, Desktop Integration, and flexible End User Queries and Reports – —giving you the visibility you need to gain control and make educated business decisions.

Other IBM i ERP software solutions require extensive consulting, expensive upgrades, and high maintenance fees, and you fear whether you will ever get the desired functionality and ROI from a new ERP system.

LANSA ERP Frameworks removes the risk, providing:

LANSA ERP Frameworks: Distribution

Suppliers suffer from high levels of supply chain inefficiency, shrinking margins, and escalating customer expectations. It is more important than ever before to increase productivity and profitability, enhance the customer experience, and establish a virtual enterprise. All of this is possible through effective use of technology.

LANSA ERP Frameworks: Manufacturing

Manufacturers are under increasing pressure to lower costs, improve customer service, shrink the sourcing cycle, and maintain velocity in supply chain management. It is imperative to integrate information silos and processes within the enterprise, and LANSA ERP Frameworks can satisfy these requirements.

LANSA ERP Frameworks: Financial

It’s true that better financial systems will not generally lead to better customer satisfaction or retention – —or improve your ability to adapt to changes in your supply chain. However, a well-integrated financial system will increase productivity and visibility to provide into big-picture information.

About LANSA ERP Frameworks CodeStart

CodeStart solutions, frameworks, and modules are licensed on an as-is basis with the source code included. There are no warranty or ongoing software maintenance fees or upgrades for these solutions. However, LANSA Professional Services provides implementation and technical support for the CodeStart solutions on a billable time and material basis.

Since the LANSA ERP Frameworks was built with a LANSA low-code development platform, the solution gets to take advantage of all the goodness the platform provides, such as our powerful metadata repository, where business rules, triggers, data integrity, reusable components, and security are stored and managed. This means all future maintenance and enhancements can be made quickly, and the platform is so easy enough to learn that your current development team can make modifications as well.

Benefits of LANSA ERP Frameworks

Each LANSA ERP module is seamlessly integrated with related modules, contains transaction auditing, and includes reports necessary for monitoring your business and reporting to governing agencies, but each have been designed to be used independently to be used in “best-of-breed” situations too.

No More Vendor Lock-in
and High Maintenance

If you already have an ERP system running on your IBM i (System i, iSeries, AS/400), you may already be experiencing vendor lock-in. With LANSA ERP, there is no more vendor lock-in, high maintenance fees, being stuck on a release, or bad customer support.

Business Process
Integration and Workflow

LANSA’s IBM i enterprise resource planning software comes equipped with a complete business process integration and workflow engine enabling business transactions from any source or format to be automatically processed based on business priorities and needs.
