Online Capturing of Order Data

The mobile terminals communicate via DECT RF and the windows applications WinDECT and MTDBAServer via ODBC with a SQL database. Controlling data base accesses is performed by means of programmable SQL scripts which are executed by the MTDBAServer. The name of the SQL script which should be executed will be sent together with the data record by the mobile terminal.

An ordering procedure consists of the following steps:

  • The number of the article to order will be scanned as barcode and be sent by the mobile terminal to the data base.
  • From the database the article master data fields article description, batch size and calendar week are responded back to the mobile terminal.
  • Batch size and calendar week may be changed by the user. After transmitting the record to the data base the data are stored in the data base table “Orders”.
