Turn-key API solution for INVEX Metal ERP

In some cases, a metal center may want to extend the INVEX functionality to meet company or customer specific requirements.  This is why we built CSX, the turn-key API solution for INVEX-ERP. It provides a host of flexible options, including:

  • Creating custom, user-defined fields
  • Adding user-defined fields to INVEX screens and form
  • Connecting external and customer applications or 3rd party systems
  • Customizing business documents

Multiple API (Gateway) Connections

INVEX has the capability to interface with external customer applications or 3rd party systems. For example, when a Sales Order Item is entered, rather than using the INVEX metal price book, a customer may want to use an external customer price book. No problem! Using the pricing API in INVEX, it can be done. The number of APIs, what we call gateways, allows any number of external systems to be connected.

Custom User Defined Fields

User defined fields can be added to accommodate specific company operation, reporting and management requirements. INVEX allows those same user defined fields to be added to the INVEX grid displays and forms. Users can create parameters around the new field they would like to create and special buttons can be activated on over 50 INVEX screens. These call a user defined screen to enter those fields and perform any necessary validations. Screens can be developed in JavaScript, HTML, or Python for added flexibility.

Custom Validations & Seamless Upgrades

INVEX also allows a customer to perform custom validations. As information is entered in INVEX, the service center can add their own validations and checks prior to the transaction, such as a SO or PO, from being released for fulfilment. INVEX-CSX is designed to insulate company custom applications from changes related to INVEX upgrades. This enables companies to upgrade to new versions of INVEX with no or minimal impact to their applications.
