USABILITY

Enhanced Usability with .Net

Usability is a qualitative attribute that assesses how easy user interfaces are to use

Usability is now recognized industry wide as an important software quality attribute

Enhanced usability is the product of technology and intelligent design of the interaction with a software user interface

.Net on Win Mobile provides a powerful platform to create ongoing enhancements to usability based on work flow while meeting QAD transaction requirements

Attributes of Usability

Familiarity: Do users associate the look and feel with other designs they have seen?

Learnability: How easy is it for users to accomplish basic tasks the first time they encounter the design?

Efficiency: Once users have learned the design, how quickly can they perform tasks?

Memorability: When users return to the design after a period of not using it, how easily can they re establish proficiency?

Increased Efficiency

Intelligent Prompting e.g.: Lot, serial, data defaults

No manual entry on mobile device Data access responsiveness No clicking “Ok” to close windows

Information return only if not “Ok”

Minimize total click count Navigation + scan count

Work Flow Driven Data Access

Browse QAD data on Mobile Client Item location, quantities, lots, etc Scrap reasons PO lines Shipping schedules, details Container content relationships

Work flow driven User selectable

Usability and Efficiency In Action!

Adaptive Work Flow Execution

A Mobile Client should use .Net to integrate manufacturing process requirements with defined QAD process flows

Mobile work flows are designed to streamline the collection of data to the minimum number of scans possible while generating the required data flow and transaction execution into QAD

Error management is integral to the work flow to prevent execution errors before they occur

Work flows should be configurable to adapt to changes in manufacturing processes or QAD process flows

2D Labeling

2D Labeling More Than

Just a Mandate

What is 2D?

2D can contain up to 1,000 characters, depending on format vs. 20 characters in a 1 dimensional barcode

Linear barcodes (or 1D) get longer as more data is encoded

2D barcode encode data in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions

1D barcodes typically depend on links to a larger database

2D contains a sort of mini-database itself, which includes information on the product and its attributes which can be encrypted

Some 2D Symbologies

Supporting 2D means morethan just hardware scanning support.

Your DC software must support the migration

Intelligent Labeling

From Automated Labeling To Intelligent Labeling

Intelligent Labeling

Print predefined labels Mobile label printing Document printing Internet label printing Printer Management

Define printers, label format & printer hierarchy Link devices to users, users to printers and

transaction type to label format

Accurate labels, in the right place, at the right time, in the right quantity!

IntelliLabelTM

Nested Container/Inventory Management License Plate System

“Master, mixed, detail labels on steroids” Associate multiple data elements with a single

serial/license plate # scan: Warehouse / Location Employee ID Part / Lot / Serial Quantity / Unit of Measure Container Serial # PO / Vendor Other

A great tool for selective serial numbering, kitting / bagging, etc.

A Radley Workforce Productivity SolutionTime & Attendance

Labor Tracking

Control Costs and Increase Productivitywith Time & Attendance

Decrease Errors - Eliminate paper timesheets and other error-prone processes.

Improve Accuracy – Manage overtime and apply pay and work policies consistently and accurately.

Increase Productivity - Employees experience ease of use, allowing them to focus on higher value activities. Biometric capabilities are available.

Time and Attendance Basics

Workers clock-in and clock-out using badges or biometrics

Manage worker shift schedules, breaks and lunch

Track vacation accrual, scheduled vacation and absences

Manage standard and contract specific pay rules

Calculate hours worked by day, by week, by pay period

Send employee pay period hours to payroll for check processing

Labor Tracking Basics

Workers clock-in to jobs they are assigned to throughout the day

Collect job specific data i.e.; setup/run, job number, quantity, lot, serial, scrap, etc.

Ability to calculate by one worker to one job, one worker to multiple jobs, multiple workers to one job

Manage shift schedules Manage crew scheduling and processing Calculate actual labor by worker, by job Update work orders, job, project,

schedule, etc. with actual labor

User Profiles

Hourly Workers are the core users of the system

They simply clock-in and out or onto jobs

System handles all back end processing and exceptions

Supervisors review their assigned employees pay hours and/or labor data

Approve hours worked Edit employee exceptions (tardy,

overtime, etc.)

Human Resources roll up pay period hours and export to payroll, internal or third party
