For regional managers and field maintenance teams, the improved mobile device support makes it easier to get more work done while in the field. Using a Mobile Java device, field managers can create and assign work orders, view technician workloads, and quickly answer status questions, while performing a store visit or walk-through. The addition of Bluetooth peripheral support enables easy scanning of parts inventory to ensure accurate parts and materials tracking, and the new release is compatible with Sprint, Verizon and Cingular mobile devices.
