The following are examples of recent projects that resulted in strong ROI successes for our customers.


SAP/SyteLine Interface

To facilitate the need for corporate financial reporting after a corporate merger, a custom program was written for a Pennsylvania manufacturer to load general journal transactions from an SAP system into SyteLine. By automating this interface, many hours of labor are saved every week and human error is eliminated.

Bank Reconciliation of Checks

For the bank to automatically reconcile and validate checks that are cashed in the name of this Indiana SyteLine company, DevRunner provided a utility. It exports AP Check data from SyteLine in a format that is prescribed by the bank. After exporting, the file is then transmitted to the bank. This utility made it possible for the company to leverage the bank’s reconciliation process thus increasing security against check fraud.

Background Invoice Print and Post

Standard SyteLine design restricts the number of users who can print and post invoices to one. This limitation can disrupt workflow and expediency of invoicing because all other users are locked out. A modification was designed for an Ilinois tool manufacturer to allow this process to run in the background queue at night. Error messages are logged and daytime users are no longer restricted while print and post is running. The result of this enhancement is higher system availability for the A/R staff during the day, thus keep them much more productive.

Programmer Support

One California customer’s programmer was tasked to write several modifications in SyteLine 7. He had researched the architecture on his own and was familiar with some of the database. However, he ran into several stumbling blocks during his design phase due to his lack of experience with the environment. DevRunner provided programmer support in order to review his issues and answer questions via phone and email. Design solutions were suggested which allowed him to then proceed with development under his own power. In the end, their programmer stayed productive on his project while maintaining personal control of it, and his programming knowledge was significantly increased.

EDI Mapping

An east coast consumables manufacturer was required to add Ace Hardware as an EDI trading partner. They did not have adequate experience with their EDI translator product, Sterling Gentran, to do this on their own. DevRunner provided services to quickly set up the trading partner and map the appropriate transaction fields to SyteLine. This project alleviated the immediate need to hire an EDI administrator, thus saving staffing costs.
