With the Eclipse Order Scan companion product, customers create orders using a Palm device and directly review the orders from the Palm device.
For example, your showroom stocks larger items that are difficult to take to the checkout counter. Using an Order Scan-enabled Palm device, your customers can select the items they want to purchase, along with the quantity for each item, and take that information back to the checkout counter. Checkout personnel can then sync the Palm device with Eclipse Sales Order Entry. Customers do not need to worry about bringing items to the counter and checkout personnel do not have to manually enter each item into Sales Order Entry.
Order Scan works with a Palm device's HotSync feature to transfer order information from the Palm device to the Eclipse system. To use Order Scan, you need a Palm device with a barcode reader. The Palm device's cradle needs to be connected to a checkout counter terminal through a USB cable or local serial connection. Process Order Scan orders with Eclipse Sales Order Entry.
