SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - April 7, 2008) - As part of its new Spring 2008 Release,
Innotas has added a powerful new Web Services API (Application Programming
Interface) to its On-Demand Project Portfolio Management (PPM) solution,
allowing it to easily integrate and share information with CRM, ERP and
Business Intelligence, and other enterprise applications.
With the new API, business process steps and associated data can be shared
among Innotas PPM and other key business applications. This eliminates the
need to re-key data in multiple software applications, gives organizations
a single view into key business initiatives, and provides better reporting
and intelligence across the enterprise.
"Because of its Web Services API, Innotas integrates with our other
enterprise applications, including Salesforce®, PeopleSoft HR and
PeopleSoft Finance. This integration allows all of these solutions to pass
information among each other, and gives us a single integrated flow of
information across the company and a single source for all of our corporate
data," said Tony Velleca, CIO, UST Global.
Moreover, the flexibility of an on-demand solution with
out-of-the-box integrations and APIs means that integrating PPM into
existing business processes and applications can be done at the
departmental level without the need of major involvement from central IT.
"The new Web Services API provides customers with an easy way to link
multiple applications used to support a single business process," said Chad
Haftorson, VP of Products at Innotas. "Allowing relevant information to
flow between applications -- other SaaS solutions, custom applications, or
traditional packaged applications -- improves the efficiency and accuracy
of critical business data."
The Innotas Web Services API also allows organizations to:
-- Enhance resource management by sharing resource attributes between
Innotas PPM and PeopleSoft or other HR applications
-- Seamlessly feed critical data, such as timesheets, into financial
systems
-- Allow project managers to import existing projects from MS Project or
continue using MS Project for initial creation of project plans
-- Synchronize accounts and contacts from Salesforce when opportunities
meet user-defined criteria to provide services and sales with the same
information
-- Automatically create a project from Salesforce to coordinate
activities between the project team and the sales team
