    QAD CSS Portal

    QAD Customer Self-Service (CSS) is a web storefront that enables manufacturers to display products and take online orders for B2B and/or B2C customers. Seamless integration with MFG/Pro allows for accurate item, customer and inventory information with minimal manual intervention. QAD CSS is designed to give customers the option of paying for orders by credit card.

    QAD’s Product Information Management solution is a central repository that allows storage of additional data about products that cannot be stored in an ERP system. Sales and marketing data, such as images and data sheets, can be stored for products and easily accessed by other ERP applications.
