Infor LN delivers
Infor LN transforms ERP solutions from a system of record to a system of engagement that empowers the entire organization. LN connects people across the organization to customer data and business processes in ways that best fit specific roles and tasks. Because LN is information and event-driven, it brings relevant insights and prioritized tasks directly to users. Employees will be more productive because they’ll have access to contextual information that’s relevant to the business process task at hand, the relationship with the customer, and be better able to prioritize workloads.
