Offline Order Entry Client
We have drivers who take orders in the field, often times in places with no internet connection. Is anyone familiar with or know someone who can build a tool that can be used to record orders offline and sync it with NS upon obtaining internet connection?
We are currently contemplating between using iPads or Netbooks depending on how we can solve this issue.
:cool:
Update:
After considering several different options we determined the best route is to use Samsung Galaxy's and develop an HTML5 Android App. The app will store data locally on the device and sync with NS when connected to the internet. The Galaxy (unlike the iPad and several other devices) also provides non-cell tower dependent GPS so we can log where each entry is made along with auto populating fields upon arrival to different sites (less user error). If you want more info on this you can always PM me.
