1. Start With Ready Made M3 Apps
Use out-of-the-box Flow apps for inbound, picking, packing and production reporting. Then adjust the steps in the designer or build new apps when your process requires it.
2. Automate Daily Workflows
Route approvals, notifications and exceptions across teams and systems while keeping Infor M3 as the system of record. Remove manual handoffs and status chasing.
3. Live Infor M3 Data In Every App
Two way synchronization with Infor M3 13.4 and Infor M3 CloudSuite ensures users always scan, pick and report on up to date ERP data.
4. Work Online Or Offline
Warehouse and field staff keep working even without a network connection. Data is stored locally and then synced back to Infor M3 automatically when they are online again.
5. Upgrade Safe M3 Extensions
Extend Infor M3 functionality in Flow instead of modifying the core system. Custom logic lives in low code apps, so M3 upgrades stay easier, safer and more predictable.
What is Novacura Flow for Infor M3
Novacura Flow is a low code platform and app suite that extends Infor M3 without touching the core ERP. You build or adapt mobile apps for M3 processes such as inbound, picking, production reporting and packaging, then run them on scanners, mobiles or browsers.
Start with ready made apps for inbound logistics, inhouse logistics, outbound logistics, packaging management and manufacturing reporting. Adapt them to your processes, or build new apps in the same visual designer.
Behind the scenes, Flow acts as a process and integration layer. Each app is a workflow that can connect to Infor M3, other systems and devices in one place. You get deep ERP integration, BPM and integration capabilities in a single platform.
Key capabilities for Infor M3 users:
Low code app builder
Design apps visually in Novacura Flow Studio. Map each step in a process such as pick customer order or report operations on a work order, then connect it to Infor M3 through the dedicated connector.
Deep M3 integration
Every scan, confirmation or report in a Flow app updates M3 in real time. Apps behave like a simpler user interface for M3 while all data and processes stay in the ERP.
Mobile and scanner support
Run Flow apps on handheld scanners, smartphones, tablets or desktops. Use barcode scanning, camera, GPS and voice input to capture data where work happens.
Offline mode
Keep work going in areas with poor coverage. Users can receive tasks, record work and sync back to M3 automatically when they are online again.
BPM layer
Use Flow as a process layer on top of Infor M3. Link users, steps and systems in a single workflow, collect performance data and optimize your processes over time.
Integration engine
Orchestrate data between M3 and other systems with more than 50 connectors. Flow apps can also be exposed as web services, so Flow acts as a service bus in your landscape.
