Single Spreadsheet

 The ERP Cloud Toolbox streamlines the process into a single Excel workbook, which seamlessly handles hierarchies between records. Oracle tools require users to constantly switch between Oracle screens, Excel, and their desktops. Oracle tools also require users to manually link records such as Headers and Lines across different worksheets and using record IDs.

More4apps solutions streamline the data loading process into a single Excel spreadsheet.

Advanced Validation

More4apps presents the errors in the context of the data, which saves time and reduces frustration. Oracle tools offer basic validation, but typically after the data has already been loaded, and require complex and tedious reconciliations.

Our tools save time and reduce frustration with advanced validation. Errors are caught before they are sent into your Oracle ERP.

Flexible Formatting

Any user can adapt the ERP Cloud Toolbox templates to fit their business needs and share them with others. Easily copy and paste data between sheets as you would with any other Excel document.
