CDC Software offers cloud inventory product

CDC Software offers cloud inventory product    CDC Software Corp., a provider of enterprise software applications and services, will make available CDC TradeBeam i-Supply 7.6, the latest version of its cloud collaborative inventory management application.
   The company said CDC TradeBeam i-Supply 7.6 is delivered on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that enables manufactures to give their suppliers real-time visibility into forecasts and inventory status, such as what is on hand, has been used, ordered, shipped and received, as well as real-time exception notifications.
   “The new version extends support to supplier plants that produce and assemble products with lower inventory turns and longer lead times,” CDC Software said in a statement. “Those characteristics typically are of suppliers that are located geographically far from the manufacturer, often found in the medical device manufacturing industry, for example.”
   Other new features include enhancements in order management, low turn goods, forecast history and integration support including average daily use and forecasted daily use, and outbound EDI advance shipping notice messaging.
   “The latest version of i-Supply further advances collaboration between manufacturers and their suppliers so they can balance costs better, provide service on a daily basis and ultimately improve their bottom lines,” said William Green, president of CDC Software’s cloud product line business.
   The user interface supports 11 languages: Chinese (simplified and traditional), English, French, German, Korean, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian.
   CDC TradeBeam also provides global trade management solutions that include import and export compliance, shipment tracking, supply chain event management and global trade finance.
