Browser-Based Inventory Systems
A number of off-the-shelf inventory systems are intended for installation on a single computer with a single license. Browser-based inventory control systems can be used in multiple locations throughoput a facility, all using information within a single, server-based database. Such a system makes all of the interfaces and reporting accessible through any browser in your enterprise.
Web based inventory management software offers traceability or genealogy capability. See Inventory and warehouse management for more applications.
A browser-based inventory system may also support handheld data collection devices from any manufacturer. Some devices are also quite ruggedized and can be used under some rather harsh conditions. These kinds of wireless devices, when working with a browser-based inventory package, offers an incredible amount of flexibility for today’s plant environments. Plant-wide inventory systems can also provide a flexible reporting mechanism. Various access levels throughout a facility can ensure customized and targetted reporting for differing worker and management levels. A custom-tailored inventory system can also be developed to be compatible and easily integrated with other systems and mainframes. This is also a great fit for mission specific applications. For example, systems that are ASP/SQL Server-based and can also be configured for Oracle, MS Access or other kinds of installations. Inventory systems such as those from Tuppas Software are built to the needs of the purchasing organization. The organizations workflows are used for the custom tailoring of the software rather than the needs being made to fit into the software’s workflows.
