Extend
Extend is a flexible system for handling several production processes such as stock taking, voice picking, database statistics, production reporting and advanced labeling. With its intuitive user interface and seamless scalability, Extend can truly facilitate optimization of your production processes.
Boost your existing ERP processes
A reliable ERP system is often the key to successful business. Boosting an existing ERP system with the extra power of Extend, possibilities become even greater. Extend lets your ERP become mobile, by communicating directly with units on the floor e.g. handhelds or vehicle mounted mobile computer clients. Processes such as labeling and reporting, combining or splitting orders, zone handling, consolidation and stock taking can be performed quickly and accurately. Real-time communication with external equipment such as automated carousels, electronic scales and barcode label printers helps processes run smoothly. And collecting data for performance analysis and optimization of the production is easy.
Easy to learn – easy to use
Forget costly learning curves. Extend has a comprehensible user interface and functionality. Each user has access to a set of functions, easily handled with a click of an icon – from goods notification and receiving to stock balance information. All communication is managed online, giving users access to real-time data and full transparency between messages generated by the ERP system and the mobile client.
Communication and integration
Extend handles various technologies for integration with the existing ERP system, and supports many types of hardware and operating systems. The Extend client is a thin client which communicates continuously with the server using WLAN. All logics are handled in the Extend server and the sessions are connected by user ID or IP address for maximum security.
The server handles communication with the ERP system and the data; it also automatically updates the screen of the mobile clients. Any error messages from the ERP system are mirrored to the clients, making error handling easy and fast, e.g. at the conveyor. The client also has built-in automatic updates.
