AMERICAN BUSINESS SOFTWARE

In the early 1970s, most distributors had some type of system to handle accounting, such as Accounts Receivable, but inventory control was virtually always done manually on cardboard stock record cards stored on a "Lazy Susan" in the middle of the order entry / customer service area. Two notable exceptions were J.J. Haines in Baltimore, MD and Empire Carpet in Teterboro, NJ. These companies wanted to computerize more aspects of their business, including inventory control, and move to a bigger c... omputer system capable of handling more on-line users. At the time, this was considered "leading edge", since there were very few ways to do this, short of purchasing a "mainframe" computer costing millions of dollars to buy, and many more hundreds of thousands of dollars to maintain each year.Their Smart Warehouse software has given their customers a 21st Century Showroom.
