Austin, TX  (24 May 2005)  -  Triact Associates, Inc. this month announced the release of a new offering to speed integration of external software to the BaaN ERP system through Web Services.  "The introduction of SOAPbox.NETTM enables us to provide all the benefits of SOAPboxTM for BaaN to clients committed to a Microsoft technology stack" explains Steve Terry, president of Triact.  Leveraging existing interfaces to BaaN, including DDC and OpenWorld, SOAPbox for BaaN provides an extensible interface and business logic framework for accessing BaaN data and transactions.  Configurable transaction queues allow administrators to tune performance by transaction type and company within BaaN.  Extensive and easy to access transaction logs make it easy to track down issues when they first occur.  "SOAPboxTM technology frees clients' application developers from protocol housekeeping of proprietary interfaces", said Ken Ankele, VP of Professional Services at Triact.  "Application developers and Business Analysts are able to access the data and functionality of Baan through web services just as if it were a standard library in their favorite development environment.  Productivity and software reuse increase as client staff is able to focus on business processes and application functionality."
