Applications
Mobile PoS receipts printed at the delivery point, with the transaction sent back to a central payment server, reduce processing at the back office and improve cash flow through real-time payment transactions.
Proof-of-delivery dockets printed at the time of delivery can include a full description of the goods or services supplied, details of the driver/engineer, and a time stamp. On-screen signatures can be printed on the delivery docket.
Invoices and sales orders for route sales when printed on site, with the order communicated back to the sales ordering process by wireless technology, offer several advantages:
- the customer has an immediate record of his order
- postal costs are reduced
- time is saved for the driver since the order is entered automatically and not at the end of the day
- back-office processing is reduced
inventory management is based on real-time information
Returned goods labels including a barcode are processed much quicker than handwritten returns dockets. If the driver labels returns as they are picked up, there is no sorting out to be done when they are off-loaded and they can then go back into the
distribution centre or warehouse rather than cluttering up the returns bay.
Food traceability labels and receipts to track goods as they pass through each stage of the supply chain will be increasingly important as a compliance issue for the food industry under food traceability regulations (reg. (EC) No. 178/2002).
Labelling goods at the time of pick-up allows perishable goods to be independently tracked according to a date and time stamp, producer’s details, and carrier’s registration information.
Work orders can be printed to back up information provided by the in-cab computer. These will include details of the job, location and directions.
Inspection and survey: Home inspectors, insurance claims agents or equipment survey personnel (responsible for safety and efficiency of heating and ventilation systems, sanitisation services or electrical installations, for example) can now print a copy of the completed work order, estimate, inspection or violation report, and leave it with the customer. A signed copy can be retained for records as proof of the inspection work having been carried out.
On-site maintenance and repairs: Service technicians can have immediate access to up-to-the minute work assignments. Once the work is completed, they can print out a detailed report of the work done, including parts fitted and further servicing recommendations to give to the customer. They can
also print an invoice and receipt.
Warranty returns: Where equipment needs to be returned for repair under warranty, the field technician can print out the necessary returns document on site, speeding up the returns process and reducing administrative overhead.
