Sales Force Automation

The SalesForce module allows your sales staff to create customer orders on the go and transmit them electronically back to your warehouse for fast and effective fulfilment. Information can be replicated both ways, i.e. from the PDA to your central server and from the server back out to the salesperson's PDA.

The best way to explain how the Micronet SalesForce module works is to study the timeline below.

Technical Information
  1. As orders are created on the PDA and synced to Micronet, a separate file for each order is created in the \PDA\orders directory .
  2. As these orders are processed by Data.Connect, they are copied to the PDA\ordersbk directory where they stay until they are manually deleted.

 

Technical Tip

You can copy any order from the \PDA\ordersbk directory and place it into the \orders directory and Data.Connect will produce another picking slip for it.

You can also re-send orders from the PDA.

 

 

Technical Tip

Ensure that you have configured Micronet, your hardware and the PDA users before trying to use Micronet Sales Force – refer to "Configuration".
