TrueCommerce Announces Integration with Starship Freight for Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200

PITTSBURGH, May 14, 2008 – TrueCommerce today announced the expansion of its Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 integrations to now include StarShip Freight 10.01 built by V-Technologies. The company recently entered into an Endorsed Development Partner Agreement with Sage Software naming TrueCommerce the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) provider for select Sage Software Business Management Division (BMD) product lines, including Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200. Additional integration with StarShip Freight will enable customers to simplify the creation of Advance Shipping Notices (ASNs) by automating the process of updating BOL numbers, PRO numbers, and SCAC codes.

“We are extremely pleased to have developed this enhancement to our solution in cooperation with V-Technologies, publishers of StarShip Freight,” said TrueCommerce President and Chief Executive Officer George McKee. “By extending the integration of the TrueCommerce EDI solution to include StarShip Freight, our Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 customers are able to enhance their user experience in a truly meaningful and productive way.”

Caroline Walsh, V-Technologies Director of Sales & Marketing, concurs. “We believe this is a natural extension of StarShip, and we’re excited to be working more closely with TrueCommerce to provide our customers with a broader solution.”

EDI combines software and network services to enable the electronic exchange of business documents such as purchase orders and invoices and is often a prerequisite of conducting business with large organizations such as big-box retailers, healthcare organizations or departments within the federal government. By integrating customer data and automating routine functions, StarShip Freight enables Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 users to gain immediate efficiencies in shipment processing, accounts receivable, customer service and much more.

“Our Development Partner Program was created to help our partners successfully develop, test and market applications that enhance and extend the functionality of Sage Software’s BMD solutions,” said Alan Bryant, Senior Vice President ISV Programs and Developer Relations for Sage Software’s Business Management Division. “The integrated capabilities of the TrueCommerce and V-Technologies solutions provide extended value to our mutual Sage MAS customers, and this joint development effort clearly demonstrates the teamwork our program is fostering.”
