Northville, MI — January 14, 2005 — Software company Infor Global Solutions has released the latest version of its TRANS4M solution for automotive enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain management.
The new release incorporates serialized container and lot management, customer-requested enhancements, new trading partners and full integration of Infor SupplyWEB 7.5, a Web-based supply chain management and execution solution.

TRANS4M 8.20 also adds enhancements for Sarbanes-Oxley requirements, as well as 20 new trading partners, Infor said.
