Hardware Requirements:
To run Adaptus application, clients need to worry less about hardware and its upgrades. There are several references of being successful to implement and go live with existing hardware resources of a client thereby giving a leverage on hardware cost which otherwise would increase the total cost of the project.
Back Up
The proposed application shall provide the user to take appropriate back ups of the database. The backup may be taken in incremental form or full backup. The scheduling of backup can also be done whereby the system prepares the backup on the recommended backup media. In case of unwanted loss of data or application, the backups can simply restore the system to its previous state.
Multi Location Connectivity
The diagram below shows the typical setup of the ERP at various locations. The system will first be implemented at the Head Office. In subsequent phases the client component will be installed at the other locations.
Macros in Excel, Word, Presentation,
Macros can be written in Excel or any MS Office product to pull data from Adaptus RT online or update data into Adaptus RT online. This will help accountants write excel sheets or design presentations that pick data from Adaptus RT directly. The macros can be used even in HTML pages or Acrobat PDF documents.
Internet Based Merging
It is possible in Adaptus RT to be running on different locations and data be merged on to the server online or offline on an automated basis. This feature is excellent solution for companies that have multiple branches or shops and the data should be collected at the head-office. This feature works even with ordinary dialup internet connection. The data consolidated at the head-office can even be propagated back to the branches selectively or as summary of balances.
Company Templates
A new concept where any company's data can be converted into a template and this template can be used to create new companies that have the same structure and design including the chart of accounts and products. This is helpful when the software has to be implemented in multiple companies of a group. Another use of the templates is that Adaptus RT would be shipped with templates of all kinds of companies and the user can select the one that he wants to use and he will be up and running with all structures, screens, layouts and even documents and RD reports designed.
XML based data exchange
Adaptus RT has an XML based data exchange format. Adaptus RT can write to and read data in XML. When an Invoice is saved, Adaptus RT can optionally email a small XML file to the customer. If the customer is a Adaptus RT user, he can click on that file and it would raise a purchase for the customer who also uses Adaptus RT. The same can be used when material is dispatched from warehouse to branches. An XML file can be emailed which would raise the corresponding stock transfer voucher at the branch.
Remote Connectivity
RT has option to have a central server with clients connecting to the central server (data base) on the LAN or WAN by using internet or direct line (ISDN, Leased Line, Ordinary Telephone line etc) connectivity. The technology used to enable remote connectivity is the latest SOCKS TECHNOLOGY version 5.
SOCKS Technology
SOCKSv5 is an IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) approved standard (RFC 1928) generic, proxy protocol for TCP/IP-based networking applications. The SOCKS protocol provides a flexible framework for developing secure communications by easily integrating other security technologies.
SOCKS includes two components, the SOCKS server and the SOCKS client. The SOCKS server is implemented at the application layer, while the SOCKS client is implemented between the application and transport layers. The basic purpose of the protocol is to enable hosts on one side of a SOCKS server to gain access to hosts on the other side of a SOCKS Server, without requiring direct IP-reachability.
SOCKS Proxy Server
When an application client needs to connect to an application server, the client connects to a SOCKS proxy server. The proxy server connects to the application server on behalf of the client, and relays data between the client and the application server. For the application server, the proxy server is the client.
SOCKS MODEL
The SOCKSv5 protocol, also known as authenticated firewall traversal (AFT), is an open Internet standard for performing network proxies at the transport layer. It resolves several issues that SOCKS version 4 protocol did not fully address or omitted:
|
Strong authentication |
|
Authentication method negotiation |
|
Address resolution proxy |
|
Proxy for UDP-based applications |
Control Flow of SOCKS
This figure shows the SOCKSv5 control flow model. The portion within the dashed-line represents SOCKSv4 functionality. Note that SOCKSv5 adds authentication.
