Agile Network Launches SAP Certified Solution for Multi-Carrier Shipping & Transportation Management Applications

SAN DIEGO, March 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Global transportation management and shipping software developer, Agile Network, today announced the release of Agile Facilitator™, a certified connector that integrates popular SAP supply chain, warehouse and order management applications with the Agile Network suite of enterprise shipping software products.

Agile Facilitator provides a platform-integrated solution that allows SAP customers to seamlessly process, track and manage shipments originated in existing SAP applications, including shipment execution and transportation management systems operating in multiple locations.
