RE: JDE Screens/Scanners/options

Mike:
Psion Teklogix has an excellent solution.  Their handheld terminals do 5250
emulation with no mods to the application.  There is a tool called TSF that
allows you to take an existing screen, pick and choose the elements you want
on the smaller handheld screen, and it does the conversion on the fly.  They
have very rugged devices for tough environments.  We have installed a lot of
Low Temp gear for use in freezer warehousing apps.

Disclaimer:  our company sells, installs and support Teklogix solutions.  
Mike, if you want any other info, contact me off list.
Thanks,
cjg

Subject: JDE Screens/Scanners/options


We are looking at barcoding/scanning some information that goes into our
inventory that we are using in our JDE World software system (and if anyone
mentions an Oracle solution I will scream).  One thing we'd like to do is
take a few screens and shrink them down to make them more amendable to
handheld scanners.  We'd rather not write custom code or modify the JDE
screen.  I don't know if we care about 5250 vs. HTML but it seems like a
possible option would be HATS or some similar 3rd party application that
does the translation on the fly and allows us to easily modify the screen
map to the application.  Any thoughts?
