Mobile computing has exploded into a mission critical element for today's enterprise.  Mobile solutions are invading all areas of business including: marketing, eCom sales, warehouse automation and production tracking.  But the big question is: how does mobile fit with my use of Sage 100 MAS as a business management application?

Well, there are a number of answers to that question.  Let's take a look at some of the options and see if we can shed some light on how you can use mobile to enhance Sage ERP 100 MAS.  We will also take a look at growing trends in Sage ERP 100 app development and how that effects mobile.

Mobile Warehouse Management Sage 100 MAS

There are many warehouse management systems available, and the endorsed solutions are not necessarily the best.  Each one has it's own take on making the business processes in your warehouse more accurate and efficient.  Better inventory management is a central and important aspect of managing your business and a Warehouse Automation application helps provide the tools users need to process inventory tasks, quickly and accurately.

One option in particular deserves your attention.  The Advanced Features Bundle gives you inventory management and warehouse automation functions that go beyond the standard capabilities of Sage 100 ERP.  Complete with barcode scanning and the ability to work on a wide variety of mobile devices, including iOS, Android and Windows mobile devices, The AFB for Sage 100 is a state of the art package of advanced enhancements for Sage 100.

Process inventory transactions, physical count, receiving and picking, and even production steps using mobile devices and track the details of your inventory management with a robust set of advanced features for Sage 100.

Mobile Production Tracking and Sage ERP 100 MAS

Businesses looking to implement production tracking mobile tools often are trying to balance the time users lose by entering the transactions, with the benefit the production data provides.  If the steps required to input the data exceed the value of the data, or slow production too significantly, then the value of tracking production on mobile devices diminishes. 

Again, the Advanced Features Bundle for Sage 100 appears to have the right balance of easy data entry for production users and insightful data that contributes to better performance and reporting.  Using almost any modern mobile device (yes those 5 year old devices you have probably won't work) users can quickly and easily input production tracking information without slowing down the process.  Track production costs by Sage 100 Sales Order and know the profitability by order.  Automate routes for fast and easy tracking.  For more information, check out the AFB for Sage 100 MAS at TekoaERP.com or click here.

Mobile Sales and Service for Sage ERP 100 MAS

Another Mobile solution for Sage 100 ERP available from Tekoa is the route sales and service module.  With this innovative module, you can give salespersons the ability to inquire about inventory and customers and enter sales onsite at the customer's location from a tablet, phone or mobile barcode scanner.  Increase sales and improve customer service when sales and service reps in the field can inquire and input new sales from their mobile devices. 

Automatically email invoice receipts or print them out to Bluetooth printers, either way you can streamline the onsite sales process and have the information in Sage 100 MAS in real-time instead of delayed batch sync, as is common.

The Advanced Features Bundle for Sage 100 ERP MAS90 MAS200 is a cloud based, state of the art mobile solution for today's cloud enabled enterprise.  It provides mobile functionality for a variety of Sage 100 functions on many different mobile devices from virtually anywhere.

Purchase Order Innovation

The importance of purchase orders  is somewhat obvious in today's business. A purchase order is simply an order that is submitted to an outside supplier for an amount of goods specified, for an amount that is agreed upon. But are there any way to improve this system? As stated, the purchase order is a vital part of the business' productivity. It governs how much material the company is taking in for the manufacturing of their product. For example, if we ran an electrical company, we would have to issue purchase orders to other companies for materials that we might need. These materials could range from wiring and electrical cables to switches and lightbulbs. But the acquisition of these items all depends on the purchase order. To get a bit deeper, a requisition order is an order that is submitted to the financial department of the business, and is then either approved or declined. In essence, the requisition is the purchase order before it has been confirme...
