LaserNet XML Management
XML to Main Application
Processing XML Data
Your business may receive a variety of XML files but these need to be converted to a more
logical XML structure or to CSV format in order for your system to process them. How can this be achieved
without complex time - consuming script writing? LaserNet offers a solution...
LaserNet XML transformation interface captures the incoming XML files and automatically processes them so that
they can be readily imported to your main application. As each application will differ in the way that it can
accept XML, LaserNet offers the ability to translate XML files into either another proprietary or accepted
XML standard, or into your EDI language or simply to a CSV database file. But whatever way you chose, with
LaserNet you retain the advantage of being able to arrange for computer to computer data interchange with your
trading partners. In other words, orders, invoices and other transaction documents are no longer just delivered
electronically they self-load into your application. The end of manual input? Well that is the aim - and even if
it is only partially achieved the business advantages are enormous...
Why use LaserNet?
1. Inexpensive
2. Powerful: Any to any interface: Invest in a single interface that will enable you
to EXPORT in CSV, EDI or translate from one XML standard to another. This gives you the means to import XML into
any of your existing applications without system upgrades or changes.
3. Bi-directional
4. Provides a number of tools to help your system interpret XML files accurately
including:
Add data: LaserNet enables information from other databases to be automatically added to your ERP-or main
operating systems output files automatically added to your ERP-or main operating systems output files
automatically before being converted and transmitted as fully structured XML. This could be as detailed
as adding a full specification or hazardous information according to the products ordered-shipped.
Meta tag Extensions and Attributes: LaserNet provides a convenient way to re-arrange text nesting, meta tag
extensions, parent-child relationships and other XML editing and manipulation tasks.
International Dates Conversions: automated d/m/yr to m/d/yr and vice versa.
Number Separators and negative values: e.g. 1.000,00 or 1,000.00 for a thousand, minus signs can be shown before
or after the numeral.
Calculations: Arrange for automated calculations, such as number of items, sub-totals, to be performed before
import or export, again eliminating the need for complex application programming.
Requirements, compatibility and availability
LaserNet XML runs on Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP and is available immediately. LaserNet is compatible with all
existing business IT applications, running any type of platform iSeries, Linux or any IT language.
