SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe

FULL DESCRIPTION

Web-based forms can help you bridge the gap between inefficient paper-based processes and enterprise applications. SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe lets you develop interactive, digital forms that can be directly integrated into your business processes.

The software builds a direct bridge between the highly structured transaction data stored within enterprise applications and the unstructured, document-based information and processes that exist outside those applications. This direct interaction lets you reduce operational costs, while increasing data accuracy and business process agility.

By centralizing forms and data, SAP Interactive Forms helps to ensure access to the most current versions of all enterprise forms. Your staff can update one form and distribute it to a central location, where all users - onsite or remote - can know they are using the correct version.
