Winshuttle and ASUG

Winshuttle Usability Business Value Assessment

Hi Winshuttle Blog Followers! Business Value… ROI… TCO… Aren’t you getting a little burned out by hearing these acronyms again and again. Well, listen up! For the last year, Winshuttle’s usability marketing team has been digging deeply into how our customers are optimizing SAP business processes through extensive client interviews, surveys, data analysis and reporting.

Here in Product Development we’re getting ready for the exciting first customer shipments of the Winshuttle 10 suite of applications which will include some interesting new loop solutions that are going to be of particular interest to FICO, MM and Master Data Management. In fact users across almost all SAP modules will find something interesting and useful in this new release. New capabilities will include the ability to leverage the BAPI and Remote enabled Function Modules of SAP with Winshuttle TRANSACTION and even publish a TRANSACTION script as a Web service in the form of a wsdl.
