RM6000
WEBXpress
WEBXpress is designed
to offer access to the RM6000 database for:
- Commerce across the Internet
- Information browsing within the Organisation
- Customers requiring information such as pricing,
loyalty Points etc.
- Information access for special user groups such

- The
Distribution application at the RM6000 Back Office.
WEBXpress
Browser Functions:
The RM6000 database is published to the WEB Server as a normal
RM6000 Remote Location. All updates to the RM6000 database will
therefore take place automatically.
The software enables standard WEB Browsers to interact with the
database to make sales via the Internet, or to disperse information
to selected groups of users e.g. Franchise partners etc.
Static Web pages create a maintenance nightmare for larger sites
as each HTML page has to be kept up to date when prices, or products
change. WEBXpress utilises Active Server Page (ASP) technology for
dynamic interaction with the Database using live data. The Browser
screen sends a set of instructions to be processed by the Internet
Information Server (IIS) on the WEB server. The WEB Server can be
located on the Corporate Intranet, or for public / restricted access
via the Internet.
The ASP technology dynamically generates an HTML in response to
requests from the Browser user. Depending upon the user application
design at the Browser the following information can be included:
- Select Products by Partial or Full Description
- Select Ranges of Products via the Classification
System which for any product offers up to 24 levels of detail -
Browse product pictures and detailed product information via a separate
window
- Add products to the sales basket
- Purchase products with any payment method
- Check out stock availability by Store
- Review product selling prices
- Check out Customer Loyalty points
- Review the Customer Loyalty Rewards programme
