Dedicated Low-Code Capabilities for Transforming ERP

On June 27th, 2025, Novacura hosted its Q2 Quarterly News webinar to share the latest product updates, feature enhancements, and future plans for the Novacura Flow Platform. This session provided users with a transparent view of ongoing development efforts, focusing on improvements to offline functionality, automation capabilities, migration tools, marketplace innovations, and upcoming AI-powered features. Below, we break down the main themes covered during the webinar, highlighting what users can expect now and in the coming quarters.  Q2 Product Release Highlights: Enhancing User Experience and Functionality The Q2 release brought numerous improvements aimed at expanding both Flow Connect and Flow Classic environments:  Offline Portal and Client EnhancementsBuilding on Q1’s offline data preloading, Q2 introduces the second portion of offline client capabilities – Async. With these two features combined, Novacura Flow Connect can now support seamless operations in low-connectivity environments like warehouses. The demo showcased an inventory management workflow, illustrating real-time stock monitoring and offline task assignments synced later.Portal Enhancements Portal added Interactions with the Custom Content Portal. These new interactions provide a new way of interacting with Portlets. Now, you can navigate seamlessly between Portal pages, external pages, or even start apps directly from the Custom Content Portlet. In the demo, Novacura showcased how this feature could be used for inventory management across multiple warehouse locations to present visually appealing dashboards that you can take action on. Advanced File System Integration  The FileSystem connector has been introduced in Flow Connect. The new file system connector allows read and write capabilities to local or external file directories. In the demo, Novacura illustrated dynamic importing of CSV data, managing unexpected file structure changes by handling additional columns automatically. This new connector now means support for customers who use FileSystem connector on Flow Classic. Workflow Designer and Sync Improvements Upcoming visual updates to the Designer will clearly separate interactive user steps from async processes, enhancing clarity in offline sync workflows, especially for users transitioning between Classic and Connect.  Translation Management System Future releases will introduce centralized translation storage supporting ICU formatting. This feature aims to simplify localization and ensure consistent multilingual user experiences.  Gone are the days of translating the same phrase multiple times within different workflows. Now, with the Phrasebook, you can translate a statement once and reference it in all of your applications.  Migration and Automation: Streamlining Workflow Modernization and Analytics Key advancements were announced for automation and migration capabilities:  Import Wizard for OData Workflow Migration The new wizard simplifies converting Classic IFS OData workflows to Novacura Flow Connect Apps, using Flow Script OData modules compatible with IFS Cloud. This new feature automates connector mapping, module creation, and error identification during the import process, making modernization more accessible without rewriting workflows from scratch. Automation Analytics Dashboard A newly introduced dashboard tracks server-side Automation runs, monitoring triggers, success or failures, and detailed step-level performance. This visibility helps developers optimize automation health and troubleshoot issues promptly. Connector and Security Updates Improvements to the Connector Agent include faster token caching and expanded REST connector scripting. Additionally, new FileSystem connector operations support UNC paths and binary […]

As part of our ongoing event tour across the UK, Novacura was proud to participate in the M3UA UK Conference 2025, held on April 29 at the Leonardo Hotel Hinckley Island. This annual event brought together Infor M3 customers, experts, and partners to share insights and explore how to get more value out of their ERP environments. We were excited to return to this high-impact gathering — not only to connect with M3 users at our booth, but also to take the stage and present a powerful case study on warehouse operations optimization using Novacura Flow. Enhancing Full Pallet Picking with Novacura Flow At 16:30, Novacura’s Director of Sales, Aksel Jarlbäck, presented a customer case titled:“Enhancing Full Pallet Picking Efficiency with Novacura Flow.” The session addressed common challenges in traditional full pallet picking processes — such as manual scanning steps, repeated API calls, and process inefficiencies — which often result in delays, errors, and wasted time. Aksel walked the audience through a real-life implementation at a food and beverage company, showing how Novacura Flow was used to build a customized pallet picking application tailored to the customer’s needs. Key takeaways from the session included: How continuous scanning was implemented to streamline workflows How the app reduced manual input and operational time The measurable impact on accuracy and efficiency in the warehouse This case study provided a concrete example of how low-code automation can modernize M3 processes, especially in logistics-intensive environments. The audience had a chance to see how flexible application design — powered by Novacura Flow — can bridge ERP functionality gaps without requiring complex development or changes to the core system. SUMMARY Throughout the day, attendees also had the opportunity to stop by Novacura’s blue booth (#4) to meet Aksel Jarlbäck and Robin Huizer, discuss their own M3 challenges, and explore how low-code can be applied across operations — from warehousing to production and beyond. We were glad to engage with so many M3 professionals and share ideas on making ERP systems more user-friendly, efficient, and adaptable. Thanks to everyone who attended the session, visited our booth, and contributed to meaningful conversations. We look forward to returning next year and continuing the journey of ERP innovation — together.
