Promax must be easily configured to facilitate ease of use. Should be able to tailor screen and report layouts. The screens should not be ‘character mode’ based but should have a GUI (Graphical User Interface).
The Promax PX has incorporated a number of elements to improve the ease of use;
• The Promax PX solution has a strong graphical user interface. The user can modify the promotional plan through commonly used Windows techniques such as drag and drop, copy and paste, etc.
• The layout of the key screens can be adjusted to meet the specific needs of the user and the business. For instance, the user can view the promotional plan grouped by product, activity type etc.
Describe how Promax can export & import to/ from the Microsoft Office suite.
The Promax PX solution is based on a Microsoft SQL+ DB and therefore allows data to be easily extracted through Microsoft Office tools like Excel and functionality exists to allow the easy download of reports and data within Promax to be saved in Excel or other MS tools.
To ensure data consistency we do not recommend that information be imported from Microsoft office tools.
As the solution is based on a Microsoft SQL DB there is minimal or no lag in embracing MS office upgrades.
