Have you tried the TAPI Calls ? (Telephone Application Program Interface)
Calls available as any other regular API Calls to PB ? I have heard of a lot
of Telephone based applications developed using PB using just this: TAPI
Calls. May be that will help.

>I want to ask that whether anyone down here has done Page Alert in the
>system using PB as the front end tool, I have heard about email alert, but
>what I want to know is purely of Page Alert.

>
>Lets put a scenario
>
> Say you are doing Inventory Control System, where one user is
>in-charge of Issuing Inventory to the Production Floor.
> Whenever an operator needs some inventory from the Inventory
>Control, the operator would request for Inventory for the system and then
>based on the request, the Inventory user would issue the unit to the
>operator (through the system).
>
> Consider also that the Warehouse space of Inventory is also huge, so
>after requesting the user moves to the inventory issue counter and ask for
>the requested unit, this is when only, the inventory user realizes that
>somebody has requested something from the system cos. inventory user was
>busy in other work. It might take say 5 to 10 minutes for the inventory
>user
>to get the inventory and issue it to the operator which will result in the
>production time loss of 10 minutes, say there are 50 requests processed per
>day hence what will happen is (10*50) 500 minutes or 8 hrs and 20 minutes
>production time loss...( nearly one man day) which might result in heavy
>losses in the profit of the company.
>
>Alternative Solutions
> One of the solution I could think is If the system could
>automatically page alert the inventory user, immediately after the operator
>has raise the request, at least we could manage to reduce at least 50%-65%
>of the production loss time.

>If anybody out here has anything better than that pls. advise me ASAP.

>PFC), pls. explain the methodology.....
