PTSL have successfully converted 14 megabytes of libraries from Omnis 7 to Omnis Studio version 4.2. As far as we know this is one of the largest Omnis 7 to Omnis Studio conversion projects undertaken.

The manufacturing system which has been converted to the latest Omnis Studio version 4.2 is made up of 8 libraries and the total original size exceeded 14 megabytes. The application is SQL based running against an Oracle 8i database.

Working closely alongside Raining Data, authors of Omnis and adapting there conversion tools the project allowed the project  to be successfully completed within the timescales originally estimated.

One of the major benefits from day one of the new system going live in April was the implementation of the Studio on line help system.

Now moving forward, the database engine can now be upgraded and additional business functionality can be added safe in the knowledge that the latest technology is being used.
