If the cost of a canned Field Service solution is out of your budget, you
may want to consider creating your own to meet your need like Dale has done.
Then find a hardware solution and a third party software company to
integrate the two.
There are many data collection companies that offer a CDMA/GSM device
including Intermec. Finding a device that meets the needs of your
application should be easy, but if receipt printing is an option, not all
hardware vendors can do both.
We are doing a similar type of project for route delivery/confirmation
receipt printing for a MAPICS customer using mobile devices with printing
and our QuikTrac solution that I would be glad to share with you the details
off line.

Subject: Field Service Solution
We are considering implementing a field service/warranty claims
solution. The MAPICS Field Service Management solution comes with a
boatload of pre-requisites ($$) that we don't have so it isn't on the
A-list.
Does anyone have input regarding other solutions to consider?
WC Fields?
Others?
Thanks in advance,
