Re: Wireless handheld devices used for Inventory transactions

Thank you to everyone who responded to our queston about doing
Inventory transsactions on a hand held device.

We will be using the PMC module instead of IM for entering only
need to make some minor changes to the display file for it to fit
on the screen.

Many thanks again for such quick responses!

Actually, the PMC green screen transaction entry screens were designed
with this in mind.  The important transaction fields have been placed in
the upper left for this purpose.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Wireless handheld devices used for Inventory
transactions





We are beginning to use wireless handheld devices (Symbol brand) for
data collection.
The screens are 16 rows by 20 characters wide. It doesn't allow the full
green screen to be displayed in Inventory transactions - (option 1 on menu
AMIM30).

We are considering writing a program to create an offline file for using
these devices.

Is anyone else using these or similar devices? And if so, how are you
handling the screen
size for Mapics applications?

Thanks,
