Re: Oracle vs. MAPICS XA (AS/400)

Hi,

I don't have any functional experience with those packages. (I did/am doing some development and support for some ERP packages though).
So I cannot give you any advise on those packages. However the following links
may be useful:

Note: If they are not available at the above links (Recently this is the case

      for most web sites, one day available next day it is gone, :-) )
      I can send my copies.
