SMSTech
Wireless dispatch and records management Newton application for heat and air companies. Repair personnel receive dispatch calls via SMS from a base Windows server. The Newton parses and displays dispatch information. Parts, pricing and repair information is stored in a database exported to the Newton. The completed ticket, including payment information, is sent to the server via SMS, where it is parsed and automatically entered into the database. A separate application was written to export the database directly into a executable (.pkg file ) which installs the data directly into the Newton. Makes possible the export of databases directly from the server.
