Leading apparel and textile IT systems vendor, XeBusiness, announces the launch of the new version of its flagship product Xe-ERP.

The new product version - Xe-ERP2 - moves away from the traditional software package approach of a 'one size fits all' design template.

Xe-ERP2 features an innovative design approach that allows modules to be rapidly customised right down to individual network workstation level in terms of functionality, workflow and information access options at no additional 'bespoking' cost, while maintaining the integrity of the core standard package product for ease of support and maintenance.

Other additional features and functions also incorporated in Xe-ERP2 include:

• Enhanced web enablement to facilitate communication and collaboration both internally and also with key customers, suppliers and business partners.
• 'Sell off the Web' functionality available via a partnership between XeBusiness and Leeds based Shopcreator, a specialist ecommerce, web design and hosting Internet Service provider (ISP).
• Additional and enhanced specialist functionality for the corporate workwear segment of the industry.
• Additional and enhanced CRM functionality to support on-going sales, customer service and quick response programmes
• Additional business intelligence options to support timely and accurate planning and decision making avoiding the 'infoglut' syndrome.

Commenting on the release of this major product milestone for XeBusiness, Chief Executive David Cullis said:

Xe-ERP2 marks a strategic point in the on-going development of our software product. We can now offer a product version largely customised to each client's specific workflow, document formatting and business intelligence requirements without expensive product bespoking. Users no longer have to be 'shoe-horned' into a software package structure for cost reasons.
