==Software Components and Functions==
IBM ODPS consisted of four software components with the functions described below.<ref>[http://www-06.ibm.com/jp/press/1988/10191.html IBM enhances its integrated office work software, ODPS] (in Japanese)</ref>
===Office Support Program===
The Office Support Program, or OFSP, was [[IBM OfficeVision#Earlier PROFS, DISOSS and Office/36|PROFS]] enabled to process the [[Double Byte Character Set]] of the Asian languages and added some more functions. It could handle email, address, scheduling, storing/search/distribution of documents, and switch to PROFS in English.
===Document Composition Program===
The Document Composition Program, or DCP, was a porting from [[Document Composition Facility]], enabled for processing the Double Byte Character Sets with additional functions. It allowed preparation and printing of documents, with a [[SCRIPT (markup)|SCRIPT]]-type editing method.
===Document Composition Program/Workstation===
The Document Composition Program/Workstation allowed preparation of documents on [[IBM 5550]], PS/55 and other "workstations" ([[personal computers]]), that offered [[IBM Kanji System]] functions.
===Facsimile Program===
The Facsimile Program offered sending/receiving of facsimile data.
==IBM OfficeVision and Lotus Notes==
IBM ODPS was later renamed as [[IBM OfficeVision]]/VM <ref>[http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=950DEFD7143CF93AA35756C0A96F948260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all I.B.M. Plans Major Move In Software] (The New York Times, May 9, 1989)]</ref> and its [[MVS]] version (using DISOSS) was not offered. After IBM's buyout of [[Lotus Development]] in 1995, the ODPS users were recommended to migrate to [[Lotus Notes]].
==In Japan, Korea and Taiwan==
IBM ODPS was developed in IBM Tokyo Programming Center, located in [[Kawasaki, Japan]], later absorbed into [[IBM Yamato Facility#IBM Yamato Development Laboratory|IBM Yamato Development Laboratory]], in conjunction with IBM Dallas Programming Center in [[Westlake, Texas]], U.S., where PROFS was developed, and other programming centers. It first became available in 1984 for [[Japanese language|Japanese]], and then was translated into [[Korean language|Korean]] by IBM Korea and into [[Traditional Chinese]] by IBM Taiwan. It was not translated into [[Simplified Chinese]] for mainland China.
