Taking Control of Infor M3 Processing

Business engines such as Infor’s M3 ERP suite are highly sophisticated and demanding computing environments. To operate these complex environments correctly, a host of servers, applications, connections and dataflows all need to be working in perfect harmony. This cooperation must extend from executives and finance, out to logistics, SOP, warehousing and distribution, including suppliers and partners. A single component not running might cause delays in printing invoices, receiving goods or processing orders with potentially serious financial consequences.
