Mobile App for Inventory Management Plugin Features
Introduction
Mobile App for Inventory Management Plugin is a software module that seamlessly integrates with Tagrain POS and allows you to extend the functionality of your existing Tagrain edition. It allows you to manage back-office transactions related to inventory management using the Tagrain Handheld mobile application.
This mobile application is available to run on both - Android and iOS and allows you to look up products and create lists of products / quantities to perform inventory back office related transactions. The list you create using a Tagrain Handheld device can be actioned on Tagrain Web.
Using the Handheld device, you can create product lists to perform any of the following tasks:
-- Goods Receipt
-- Goods Issue
-- Purchase Order
-- Stock Transfer
-- Stock Count
Prerequisites
The only prerequisite to making use of the inventory and delivery management features is that the Mobile App for Inventory Management Plugin should be subscribed to and activated.
