Explore Web Service Case Studies

The Explore wireless PDA Order Entry application was created to demonstrate the flexibility and real-time capability of NetSuite's web service integration capability. Explore Order Entry and Explore Sales Field Rep are both currently running as a live demos.

1: Explore Field Sales Rep

Issue:
Provide Sales Reps ability to retrieve real-time NetSuite information about their customers while disconnected from the office and out in the field.

Solution:
Explore's concept is to create a light web-based application accessible over a wireless data network. In this example, the application allows the sales person to enter a Customer's name and retrieve their phone number, email and address from NetSuite. No more calling back to the office for up-to-date information. It's available on your handheld.

2: Explore Order Entry

Issue:
Provide Sales Reps ability to take orders via a PDA and have them quickly uploaded into NetSuite with the click of a button.

Solution:
Explore created a light web-based application accessible over a wireless data network. In this example, the application pulls down an Item Master from NetSuite, complete with current pricing. Once the order is entered into the device, it's uploaded into NetSuite complete with confirmation. Once in NetSuite, it's a one-click approval step to turn it into an actual sales order.

Note: This app is for demostration purposes only. Production use will require valid NetSuite licenses.
