Rocket UniVerse Programming & Development

UniVerse is the most widely deployed Pick/MultiValue platform in the world. Part of Rocket Software's U2 product family, it powers manufacturing systems, distribution operations, ERP platforms, and vertical-market applications across thousands of organizations. If you're running UniVerse, we speak your language — RetrieVe, UniVerse BASIC, VOC entries, dictionaries, and all.

UniVerse application development

We write UniVerse BASIC for production environments: business logic, custom reports, batch processes, data transformations, and system enhancements. We understand the UniVerse-specific tooling — triggers, stored procedures, the transaction processing framework, and the U2 Toolkit — and we write code that runs reliably in shops where uptime matters.

Web interfaces for UniVerse

We build browser-based front-ends that talk directly to UniVerse. PHP and Slim framework on the web side, UniObjects or command-line integration on the UniVerse side. The result: your warehouse team runs physical inventory from their phones, your customers check order status from a portal, your sales team sees real-time dashboards — all reading and writing to the same UniVerse files that run your business.

API integration

UniVerse systems often need to talk to the rest of the stack. We build REST APIs that expose UniVerse data to external applications and consume external APIs to bring data back in. CRM synchronization with HubSpot and Salesforce, EDI processing, vendor pricing feeds, shipment tracking — whatever your UniVerse system needs to connect to, we've probably built something similar.

Payment processing

We integrate payment processing directly into UniVerse-based order management and billing systems. Credit cards, ACH, tokenization, recurring billing — connected to your existing AR and order workflows so the payment lifecycle stays inside the system that manages everything else.

Data migration

Moving data out of UniVerse into PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQL Server for reporting and analytics. Moving data into UniVerse from flat files, spreadsheets, or other systems. Migrating from UniVerse to another platform entirely. We handle the multivalued-to-relational mapping, the dictionary translations, and the edge cases that break naive export scripts.

Industries

Our UniVerse experience spans manufacturing, distribution, marine, and printing — industries where the system has been running for years and the codebase reflects decades of accumulated business rules. We work with that history, not against it.

Building effective, well integrated systems.
