Service

Business processes are more and often subject to frequent changes – influenced by external and internal factors. This has resulted in increased demands in flexibility and enhanced functionality of today’s applications. generally these demands can not be met by legacy systems.

To meet these challenges, today’s applications must be able to incorporate

  • changes
  • enhancements
  • integration of new functionality and
  • interfaces to other applications

speedily and economically, or simply:
Applications need to be flexible and adapt quickly to your needs.

This is why AS-Lingo comes to you via your private cloud (included) or if you wish on-premise within your own organisation.

AS-Lingo in your own personal private cloud:

  • Save the cost of running your own IT-Center (equipment, servers and operations staff)
  • Gain the flexibility of on-demand availability of resources
  • Work from any device anywhere
  • Benefit by security in the cloud – it’s likely to better than on-premise. Your data is safely stored in a private cloud in the country that is your home.
  • Worried about being locked in? Don’t worry – we’ll even help you move to another supplier if you’re not satisfied with our product or our services
  • Enjoy continual updates and upgrades – don’t wait for releases

AS-Lingo on-premise under your own roof:

  • Enjoy continual updates and upgrades – don’t wait for releases
  • Your AS-Lingo service will be no less superior on-premise than in the cloud
    – but many of the cloud benefits will have to be provided by you – mostly at a cost
    – and even here: We will never lock you in.

Whether you are using AS-Lingo in your cloud or on-premise:
We will always ensure that you can integrate with any of your other applications where ever they may be – at your location or anywhere in the world wide web.

Security

The Sarbanes-Oxley specification of „segregation of duties“ is implemented in AS-Lingo.

Access Protection
AS-Lingo supports all aspects of security such as user authentication
(e.g. passwords) and user authorisation (e.g. administration of access rights) on the basis of role based rules.

Role based Access Protection
Roles are rules which grant or deny access to objects or functions. Roles can be defined by the user administrator. One or more roles can be assigned to a user. The user is thereby given the access authority of those rules.
In the navigation tree view, the user is offered the functionality to which he/she is authorised.

Passwords
Passwords are encrypted. A password must have at least 6 characters and numeric digits. We also advise the use of special characters for security reasons. A password must be renewed within 90 days. The last ten Passwords must not be reused.

After 3 wrong login attempts, the user will be completely disabled. Idle time out time can be set by the administrator.
An interface to “Web-Single-Login”-System is available.

Access Logging
All changes to sensitive data in the system are logged. Audit-Reports of the history of any of these changes can be created by the user showing what was changed when and by whom.

Scalability

There are practically no limits to the volume of data or the number of users you wish to apply to AS-Lingo for your environment – see Technology for more information.

The AS-Lingo Application framework is extremely scalable. Test were run using high volumes of data both on Intel-Platforms as well as Host-(Main Frame) Systems. Today AS-Lingo runs on any system ranging from a single PC to a high performance cluster of application and database servers, able to process thousands of users at a sub.second response time.

This highly scalable, growing ERP-System targets an international market and contains all vital components of successful and sustainable application systems such as security, compliance and the modular design that enables flexible enhancements and ease of use.

Adapt to your organization

Whether you run a small business or a multinational organization, AS-Lingo is able to reflect any part of your organization, be it clients, divisions, departments or even project teams.

This highly scalable, growing ERP-System targets an international market and contains all vital components of successful and sustainable application systems such as security, compliance and the modular design that enables flexible enhancements and ease of use.

AS-Lingo has a well formed and intuitive GUI that enables users to quickly adapt to using its wide range of functions. Complex tasks are presented in a user friendly front page where the complexity is handled by the system. See also the tutorials where you can find an increasing number of story boards and video clips to help newcomers to AS-Lingo.

It also includes one of the most powerful reporting systems in today‘s marketplace.

We give you maximum flexibility with two types of “PlugIns” to adapt and enhance AS-Lingo’s functionality to your needs.

  1. „Country PlugIns“ allow for flexible internationalisation (e.g. tax legislation) and
  2. „Customer PlugIns“ enable individual customer modules to be delivered

as part of the standard solution.

Many tasks can be automated and organised to run under the control of an effective

scheduling system

Mobility is becoming more and more important in daily business life. In customer related applications (e.g. sales), mobile devices can be integrated more easily and efficiently.

Internationalization

AS-Lingo is available worldwide with time and currency display as expected

  • Languages (English and German available – more languages to follow soon)
  • Local Currencies: You can run AS-Lingo with two local currencies e.g. Euros as local currency 1 for your subsidiary in Paris and US-Dollars as local currency 2 for your main office in New York.
  • Foreign Currencies: Transactions in AS-Lingo can have any foreign currency and will be handled by daily, monthly or average FC-Rates.
  • International Time Zones: Guaranties that you can work from anywhere at any time.
  • Processing of Tax is adapted to your country’s Laws and Regulations

Process Automation

A scheduling System allows you to process most Transactions and Functions as background jobs scheduled to run at predefined dates and times. These jobs can also be chained to a group of jobs, each initiating the next in the chain if completed successfully.

AS-Lingo History

2014 is AS-Lingo’s 15th anniversary

In recognition of the non-future of applications on the legacy mainframe systems with their green on black display terminals, ASK began to rewrite IBM’s Interactive Financial System (IFS) on a technologically “best of”, open Java JEE client/server platform in 1999.

Since then, AS-Lingo has gone through several releases including enhancements on it’s way to becoming a major player in the ERP marketplace.
