Building Products

INVEX software built for service centers focused on producing building materials

The INVEX metal software offers a comprehensive set of features and functions that are specific to companies that produce profiled panels and metal building composite panels made from pre-painted and coated metals.

Common business cases such as producing painted slit coil and roll forming the slit product into a profiled panel or flashing, can be handled quickly and out-of-the-box. Other common processes include composite panel manufacturing, cut-down front/exit shearing, press brake/folding, slitting, painting, and anodizing.

In addition to profiled panels and composite panels, these building products companies, also referred to as metal roofing service centers, handle and manufacture a variety of other products that include flashing, roof underlayment, fixtures, fittings, fasteners, and accessories.

Orders can be fulfilled using the multi-step routing function that can fulfill an order across a single or multiple warehouses.

This can include outside processing steps; all required transfers are automatically created.
