When Activant sets out to develop a distribution management system, we look for the best methods to help you manage all the details that make your business a success.
Easy as Pie
Eclipse lets you enter a complex quotes or do quick line buys fast. Input screens are clean, simple and easy to follow.
Eclipse makes finding a product, customer, or general ledger account about as easy as pressing "enter" on your keyboard. Our powerful search engine lets you find whatever you need fast -- with just a few keystrokes. In fact, if the information is in your database, it’s never more than one or two clicks away.
Subject-specific help is right there at your fingertips. And training is always available -- via our extensive Professional Services offerings. And because the learning curve for most processes is practically non-existent, even your newest employees can jump right in and be productive. That makes your operations far more efficient -- and gives you greater control over the accuracy of your transactions and data.
To simplify things even further, you can choose to create customized menus and user screens. So every single employee can get exactly what he or she needs. No more, no less.
Real-Time, All the Time
Eclipse instantly stores every transaction you enter -- intact, online, all the time. As soon as an entry goes in, it automatically posts to the general ledger. Change it or delete it and that shows up right away, too. Along with an audit trail that lets you see exactly what happened, when it happened, and who made it happen.
Eclipse also lets you position yourself anywhere in time -- whenever you need data from a specific date or range of dates, even if those dates are in the future.
Feel Secure
Need to see who released a credit hold? Or review a customer’s profitability? Activant Eclipse makes it easy, by putting everything you need to know -- about customers, vendors, products and all your business transactions -- at your fingertips.

Built-in programs automatically let one part of your company know what the another part is doing. And to keep your system from being used (or abused) in ways that you don’t want, multi-level security lets you restrict access to certain kinds of information -- or certain programs -- to only those people you specify.
Smarter is Better
We designed a user interface that banished the dumb terminal, relying instead on smart devices like PCs. Of course, that was a while ago. Today, our early decision to create a system that works solely with smart devices has made it easy for us to extend our technology to Web browsers, PDAs, radio-frequency devices and more. It makes the system flexible, easy to use and cost effective.
Never Forget
Eclipse tracks all the activity related to every single transaction across your entire organization. Bids, orders, late shipments, credit issues, you name it. Then, instead of just sitting there, the system proactively gets things done. It generates to-do lists, prints the appropriate shipping tickets, projects inventory you’ll need and more. Automatically.
All modules in the system have been engineered to work together seamlessly. So you can have a highly automated and fully integrated paperless operation -- from the warehouse to the back office.
Communication is Key
We recognize that your business doesn’t operate in a vacuum. So we created a system that lets you import and export data in virtually any format, delivered over any connectivity protocol. In every instance, the translation process is entirely seamless and invisible to the user. Whether you’re using a PDA, a laptop, or a Web-browser.
