Prophet 21, Inc., Yardley, Pa., has announced the release of Servent, a comprehensive software solution for distributors and wholesalers for the Windows NT or Windows 95 client/server environment. The program uses a Microsoft SQL server for its back-end database, providing both the scalability to handle high transaction volumes and an open architecture to incorporate third-party solutions such as report generation and online analytical processing (OLAP). Servent architecture incorporates an "n-tier" object-oriented design that makes it easy to plug in the latest technology enhancements, including Java applications, ActiveX components, third-party modules and other databases such as Microsoft Excel.

Designed for the needs of medium-sized companies ($5 million to $500 million in sales), Servent provides a "customer-centric" business solution that includes order management, inventory management, contact management and many other functions.
