RATEX Business Solutions Adds MITS Report to its Retail Management System

RATEX Business Solutions (RBS), a provider of comprehensive inventory management and point-of-sale business solutions to university bookstores has announced the addition of MITS reporting technology to its retail management system, VisualRATEX.

VisualRATEX is an end-to-end solution that handles all major aspects of retail bookstore operations, including product ordering, product sales, general ledger, and accounts receivable. As part of its initiative to provide superior business consulting, software, hardware, training, and support across all aspects of collegiate retailers’ information systems, RBS is offering MITS Report as an additional technology to meet its customers’ reporting needs. Through MITS Report, RBS clients have additional tools necessary to access the data in their VisualRATEX system and report on that data quickly and easily.

With the VisualRATEX system running on IBM UniVerse, RBS had been relying on the use of basic reporting facilities to complete query statements, according to the companies. “We wanted to provide our clients with a more powerful, state of the art way to generate ad hoc reports,” said Jere Warner, CEO of RBS, at the time of the announcement. “In cooperation with MITS, we were able to integrate a successful method of utilizing the data contained in our system. MITS Report makes it possible to create a variety of customized reports where users, on the fly, can manipulate the format of the report while maintaining the data integrity.”
