Users of Oracle’s E-Business Suite have for many years sought customized workarounds to the clunky forms that the system offers for data entry. For many tasks, the user must tab their way through numerous screens to enter the equivalent of one “row” of data content - a time-consuming, mundane, and often inaccurate process.
More4apps was founded by a group of Oracle consultants who agreed a better solution would be to somehow build a spreadsheet integration for Oracle, and for 20 years they have built up a formidable suite of 3rd-party data loading tools for Oracle EBS, covering over 40 specific processes as identified by their 400+ clients around the globe. The beauty of these Wizards is in their operational simplicity: built as an Excel interface for Oracle, users need no more than standard Excel skills to upload and update mass data in a fraction of the time required for the Oracle forms. What’s more, the intelligence built into each Wizard teaches users along the way, with the desired outcome of added accuracy and useability as well as the expected time and cost savings.

Retain the integrity of your single source of data
CFO and CIO level decision-makers are able to realize the power of their Oracle ecosystems by adding tools that not only streamline data entry but also enable increased productivity and profitability. The result is more accurate data and reporting, more fulfilled staff, and an ERP that is reliable as a single source of data.
For users, More4apps tools use an Excel interface allowing bulk upload of data quickly and easily - requiring less time on fixing data and more time on productive work.
Make Excel your user interface to Oracle
Users and process owners are able to keep control of data, without the need to involve the IT team.
And whilst efficiency is increasingly valuable, More4apps tools enable strategic advantages in many areas of business:
● Procurement - Ensure your TOT negotiations are based on accurate supplier data and applied correctly to all purchases, by implementing a procurement process that works for all staff with purchasing ability.
● Receivables - Understand the roadblocks in your order-to-cash cycle and automate the process for fixing issues like chargebacks, adjustments, and receipting allocations in one user-friendly spreadsheet
● Project budgeting - Create your what-if scenarios and monthly milestones within Oracle, using the Projects and Budgets Wizards in tandem, and manage all time-and-cost tracking from a single spreadsheet
● Manufacturing - From product management to streamlining your inventory and manufacturing processes, More4apps enables growth through efficiency. BOM’s no longer need to live on managers’ desktops, and Oracle can become the single source of data for all pricing and resource information.
● ERP Migration - Use Customer and Supplier Wizards to clean master data ahead of migration, and then apply the smarts of Project Wizard to help manage the actual migration project.
In 2020, More4apps began building a parallel suite of tools for Oracle’s ERP Cloud, starting with a Procurement module, and soon to be followed with three more, marketed under the Cloud Toolbox brand. The company has offices in London, California, Australia and New Zealand, and can be contacted via their website
