(Sorry...the last subject was not what I wanted to title this thread as...re-sending with better subject line!)
Client wants me to design a new inventory module. Currently all stuff is being tracked manually, and he wants to tie into a previous VFP app I did for him where he's already capturing the suppliers and products. His forklift guy receives the products from the tractor trailers, and then stickers them all on the truck (flatbeds) and then takes the bundles to the stock yard. In this new system, he wants to barcode the labels and then have a handheld the enters the information during this process. Ok, sounds normal so far. However, he says to me that he wants to just create a whole bunch of barcode labels (with just a sequential value), then put those into the forklift so the forklift driver can take them and just stick them onto the pallets. That actually sounded like an efficient idea, so then he just scans the sequential number and associates what product/location is with it. I'll probably be designing (or whomever designs the handheld app) to store the data locally and then we'll just offload it when he goes back to the office (rather than using wireless connection or some immediate transfer means). Does anyone see a flaw in that plan? tia! _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
