Pinnacles Standard Accounts Interfaces into Access Accounts once again

They aim to provide a comprehensive waste management package, from providing consultancy and advice on requirements, through to the removal of waste materials from a customer’s site.

ACM were looking for both a Service Management System and Accounts System, with proper integration between the two systems, and identified Service Director and Access Horizons as the best solution for this, in light of the excellent functionality of both systems and the already proven interfaces.

These interfaces have been achieved using Pinnacle’s standard interfaces and the Transaction Broker module of Access.

Through this technology, Service Director exports detailed Invoice Request and Customer and information to an external database table on a timed basis. Transaction Broker then picks up this information when it arrives in the table, and completes the import into Access Horizons. An added complication is that ACM’s Access system is split into 2 companies, requiring Invoice information to be directed to the correct company – this is handled neatly by Pinnacle’s interfaces.

The Access Horizons implementation was carried out by Foresight EFG, working in partnership with Pinnacle’s consultants.
