What advantages do the functions of mobile time recording devices offer me?

Mobile data collection devices make a significant contribution to optimizing work processes. They save time and therefore money.

An example: The employee in the supermarket notices that the goods on the shelf are running low. With the help of the mobile device, he scans the barcode of the merchandise in question and receives information on how often the item is still in stock. If the stock is also running low in the warehouse, the goods can be reordered directly via the mobile data capture device. Several steps can thus be carried out in the shortest possible time.

All advantages at a glance::

• Elimination of duplicate data entry
• Elimination of media discontinuities
• Avoidance of empty runs
• Avoidance of unnecessary walking routes
• Avoidance of "detours" (through route-optimized user guidance)
• Elimination of transmission errors
• Plausibility check during input
• Always up-to-date database
• Increase in process efficiency
• Revealing of savings potentials
