Buried in Paper? IMS/21 is Your Solution
 
For 8+ years, MCS has partnered with leading Document Management Software Vendor Vanguard Systems and their flagship software solution, IMS/21. MCS customers have chosen IMS/21 because it is AS400-iSeries-System i/Power centric and is application neutral. AS/400 inquiry menus from current applications are used as the jumping-off point for scanning and/or retrieval of documents, allowing your end-users to view, fax, e-mail and print. IMS/21 is also useful for COLD Storage - saving your spool files electronically to eliminate the need for those green-bar binders. PC documents (MS WORD, e-mails, Excel spreadsheets, etc) can also saved as tiff docs and appropriately indexed for future retrieval.
 
Steve Kurzban SteveK@maximumcomputer.com can arrange a comprehensive demo with the authors of IMS/21 in your conference room or ours. For more information click on http://www.vansystems.com/index.html


Please direct any questions on IMS/21 to Steve Kurzban at SteveK@maximumcomputer.com!

ePayments - Seamless Integration with Solupay
Eliminate the clunky acceptance of credit cards outside of Infor ERP easily with Solupay. Without Solupay, the order process with credit cards is inefficient. Credit cards are authorized, captured and settled outside of the accounting system and then ultimately keyed back into Infor with approval or denial data. Shipping product is further hampered by waiting for the extra step of reporting back to accounting when shipping is complete.  
 
Solupay Processing Systems in partnership with MCS provides a tightly integrated credit card processing solution to Infor A+ users. We work hard to provide our clients with tools unique to the processing industry. These reporting tools are designed to not only lower and control processing fees but reduce the expense associated with the time and energy expended by our clients doing reconciliation, controlling fraud, and managing chargebacks.
 
Solupay is a highly technical payment processor that has been working with AS400's since 1996. Our strong relationship with MCS and Infor allows our clients to make one phone call for support on all credit card related items.
    
Whether you already accept credit cards via Infor or would like to, please do not hesitate to contact Fred Apollo at 631-738-0500 x103 or email him at FredA@maximumcomputer.com for more detailed information.
School's Open, Please Drive Carefully!
School's Open, Drive Carefully!Let's help to keep our students safe. Join the AAA campaign to remind drivers to:

* Slow down when driving near schools, bus stops and playgrounds
* Take special care to obey lower speed limits in school zones
* Make sure to stop for school buses with flashing red lights
* Never use a handheld cell phone while driving - it's the law
* Drive carefully in bad weather

Parents should help children stay safe by identifying the "Best Route to School" and teaching children to follow AAA's pedestrian safety tips.
