SYNTEGRATECH^® CATS^TM

$695/$1295

SyntegraTech’s Capital Assets Tracking System (CATS) is built for the complete tracking of any inventory assets at a facility or campus, or between various locations (in transit goods). It can be used to collect transactions each time an asset (good, object, item, property) changes state, enters or leaves a building, or the campus, or is added or removed from the tracking system. It has all the features and reporting required to track the attributes of an asset, and can be used to report activity, and statistical data helpful to any organization or group. It is simple to set up, and quite simple to use. It is available in Access 2000/XP/2003/2007 versions, which can be found in Microsoft Office Professional. It comes as 2 forms, one as executable code and one as full modifiable code. The modifiable version can be easily modified to suit a customer’s needs, and makes an excellent solution to all a company’s Asset and Inventory Tracking needs. The CATS software is independent of any other software.

We provide to you four MS Access databases. One is for the Validation Data and Transactions Data on the PC, a second is for Synchronization Data between one or more Pocket PCs and the Host PC(s), and a third is for the Archived Transactions Data. These three make up the basic data that is available for reporting within the system. The fourth database comprises the program functionality of the system on the PC as the Administrative Interface program. The Administrative Interface program provides an interface for you to gain access to all the Validation, Scanned, and Archived Data, as well as the functionality of the system for the operator. You may enter basic Asset Inventory Information, and enter Validation Data through this interface. The last database is resident on the Pocket PC (PPC) in the DataStore as a series of tables that are synchronized with the PPCTransactions (Synchronization) Database on the Host PC. There is an update procedure within the Administrative Interface program to review data collected on the PPC(s) and synchronized to the Host PC, and then update the main data repository on the Host PC (or Server(s)). There are a series of screens that are built in Visual CE (similar to MS Access) on the PPC that provide the Away Interface functional program on the PPC. This allows an operator or operators to enter asset inventory information while not connected to the memory place that has the Host databases, and synchronize that “collected” transactional data from most anywhere in the world to integrate into and update the Host databases. All of this transactional and validation data can be used for reporting, which is available from the Administrative Interface. You may also inquire to the Scanned Data to see what is here, and who has it, and what condition it is in, in both the Administrative (on a PC) and Away (on a PPC) Interfaces. You can inquire to the Scanned Data for general reporting by any field or combination criteria. Since these programs are made in Access and Visual CE, you may do any additional inquiry and reporting you would like through Access and Report CE. You may install the Administrative Interface program on as many PCs as you would like, and allow other people to have access to this data, as long as you have network connectivity between the PCs (LAN, WAN or Internet). The Away Interface can be installed on one or more PPCs (usually hand held units with integrated bar code scanners) and would, through this bar code scanner and touch screen on the PPC, allow for the entry of information concerning any item in the database out in the field. You could set this program up on as many PPCs as you would like to collect data, and have them all synchronize the collected data to the Host database, as long as you had network connectivity (LAN, WAN or Internet – wired or wireless) to a File Server or another Peer Computer acting as a shared memory space for the Host database.
