Mobile Support Overview

LogixPath application provides two flavors of Mobile supports:

• Mobile Website Browser View
• Installed Mobile Application

Users can access LogixPath cloud application via normal browsers on their mobile devices. LogixPath Operations Management Software (LPOM) User Interfaces have two layouts. One is for computer and tablet, and the other is for small handheld device, such as mobile phone. Software detects the page request's UserAgent header variable to determine what type of device the request is from and then serve the display layout designed for that type of device.

Under small handheld device layout (we will call it phone-layout in the rest of the document), the screen shots of the website home page, login page and authenticated user home page are:

Click the entity type button to go into that entity's home page where user can list or search that type of entities. At any page, click the LogixPath logo to go back to the user's home page.

Each type of entity has following basic functionalities:

• Search entities
• View a list of entities
• View one entity's detail
• Add notes to an entity

A subset of entity types have the additional functionalities:

• Edit an entity
• Add an entity
• View images attached to an entity and upload new images
• View files attached to an entity

The choice of whether to provide add/edit capabilities to an entity is based on how "safe" to perform such operation on the phone user interface. For example, you can add a contact on a phone, and edit "easy typing" attributes on the phone. Later on, you can complete the contact information editing on your computer.

However, adding/modifying a sales order on phone interface may not be appropriate because sales orders often have contractual implication which must be 100% accurate. So you should perform the operations on a computer carefully and with all of your information you need.

Here is a list of entities which user can perform add/edit in phone web browser:

• Product
• Purchase Price
• Company/Organization
• Contact
• Asset/Equipment
• Inventory Counting, Stock In, Stock Out
• Purchased Batch
• Produced Batch
• Production Run key attributes, Production Task
• Production Task Components: Output, Input, Operator, Indirect Cost, Equipment, Issue
• Project Task and Task Components: Activity, Issue, Cost, Output
• Received Payment and Paid Payment

LogixPath Mobile Application provides additional capabilities on top of the LogixPath Mobile Browser support. For example:

• Using phone camera to scan a barcode or QRCode.
• When taking a new photo or selecting a photo from phone's photo gallery, the picture is compressed on the phone before sending it to the server. In mobile browser view, the picture is sent to the serve first and then compressed on the server.
• Mobile App enables user to store data on the phone, such as To Do List. These features can read/write data even when the phone is offline. In the future, we will implement more "on phone" utilities and features, such as Units Conversion.
• In the future, we will also provide data sync between data on the phone and in the LogixPath cloud, such as contact Data and Calendar information.
• Better user interface display and operations

You can install the LogixPath Mobile App from the following locations:

• iPhone: LogixPath in Apple App Store
• Android Phone: LogixPath in Google Play Store
