Sage MAS 90 & MAS 200 ERP Software News & Tips
MAS 90 Goes Mobile
Have you ever wished ...
- your field based sales force could place orders in MAS 90 from the customer’s site?
- you could work from home occasionally and still use MAS 90 to get your work done?
- you could setup a receiving station in the warehouse so that the warehouse staff could enter Receipt of Goods transactions out in the warehouse?
Are you looking for a precautionary means of distributing and isolating your workforce in the event of an H1N1 flu virus?
In the past, if you wanted to do any of these things, you would have to deploy Citrix or Terminal Services and a Virtual Private Network (VPN) and buy some additional equipment for each remote location. And then there are the inevitable performance throughput challenges associated with Terminal Services to be overcome.
Good News - those days are over. Now with the new bMobile solution you can simply access your MAS 90 or MAS 200 application directly from the web and enjoy browser based MAS 90 data entry and inquiry screens. All you need is an Internet connection and you are good to go. It runs on any mainstream browser including Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari. It works with workstations, laptops, notebooks and netbooks. Since it is being accessed via a browser that means it even works with a Mac or something running on Linux.
In addition, bMobile even runs on Smartphones via your cell or Wi-Fi connection, and is optimized for the Apple iPhone and Blackberry Storm.
The bMobile application supports all your existing MAS 90 and Windows authentications security and logins so no extra security steps are necessary. In addition, the bMobile application only presents those functions in the browser that the user is allowed to access. The result is a very clean, streamlined, easy-to-use screen for the remote user. Here is an example of a Customer Listing selection screen for your review.
