Standards validation is an important part of our quality process during standards implementation and testing. For this reason we have published a validation of our ASTM D1250-80 ABAP implementation, compared to the commonly used API “C” implementation. Often underestimated, and as a small indicator of the issues involved, we have also released a fixed point arithmetic working paper. The Working Papers can be found in our Knowledge Base.

What would it cost to program and implement a single measurements standard in an SAP environment? Only QuantityWare has the experience to offer a sensible development estimate calculation and make you aware of the additional cost and risk factors that must be considered. The Consulting Paper can be found in our Knowledge Base.

Due to frequent customer and partner requests, QuantityWare has developed specialized training courses for our BCP 10A solution, including a certification-level course.

In Q3 2009, QuantityWare will deliver the first Web Service Definition sets for bulk quantity conversions based on BCP 10A.

ABNT NBR 5992 2008 was published in November 2008. QuantityWare will deliver a complete standard implementation integrated into BCP 10A in Q3 2009 with CSP12 as a part of standard maintenance.

Two months early, here is the technical and business impact analysis promised in our News from 15.Apr – the comparison between API MPMS Ch.11.1 1980 Vols. XI/XII (ASTM D 1250-80, IP 200/80) table values and the new API MPMS Chapter 11.5 formulas. The Working Papers can be found in our Knowledge Base.
