Having the ability to make your own custom changes to the CSD or on-premise product while minimizing the impact on your upgrade path is the central mission of this product.
Every company has unique requirements of business software. When those requirements go beyond the boundaries of what the software provides, you need customization, but customization can be costly. The Infor Architect tool gives your own development team the confidence to make the system modifications required for your business. Infor Architect provides a high degree of flexibility to allow your development team to make changes to your software. It puts you in the drivers seat by allowing custom changes to be made without loosing the central integrity of the standard software. Changes can be easily inserted and removed.
Infor Architect is designed for users who want to integrate custom requirements into the Enterprise solution. The smooth interaction of custom modules with standard modules is necessary for creating a seamless installation. Architect provides for the development of new subsystems that will have the look, feel, operability, and supportability of CSD.
Architect is a tool that provides the customer with the necessary mechanism (ie, training, doc, consulting, research tools) to allow them to do their own custom modifications to CSD or on-premise Enterprise.
