Software Selection

Up to 2002 for problems of accounting and needs of accounting the programs written by the staff of IT service JSC Kemerovokhleb and functioning under control of DOS were used. Unfortunately, it is software did not allow to work it is centralized, for obtaining the consolidated statements data integrated almost manually. As a result the management of the enterprise set the task to refuse work with separate modules and to pass to a single system of external development. The flexibility, possibility of setup by own forces, without involvement of the developer was one of the main selection terms of software.

In selection process software products of a trademark of 1C were considered. But tests showed that they do not provide necessary high-speed performance. Therefore at the end of 2001 a choice was made for benefit of the ERP system of "ORACLE ELITE COMPASS".

From an interview of the leading programmer of JSC Quemerovokhleb Alexander Shmelyov: ... As our document flow is quite big, it was impossible to put 1C. At deployment of 20 jobs it does not cope with such document flow any more. We tried – very heavy load turns out. Decided that the product based on a strong relational database is necessary...
