Game-changing advantages of HRC Software solutions
Simplified document management
Must-have for managing added documents to our various interfaces, the “attachments” function adapts to your industrial mobility challenges. Enjoy optimized document management, with partial loading of images in mobile versions, or adapt your documents for read/write viewing. In addition, all media are accessible through fluid, intuitive navigation. No more endless clicking to access your content!
Calculator functionality for easier quantity entry
We have added a calculator directly into the management interface so that you don't need to use your mobile device's native keyboard for quantity entries, or worse, take your phone out. It's all on your app! With the added bonus of large buttons and ergonomics specially designed for industrial environments.
Vibration for improved operator comfort
Another feature: haptic feedback. Sound familiar? Quite simply, it's a vibration that alerts the user to the success or failure of an operation. As a result, the operator spends less time in front of his screen, and can concentrate fully on his tasks. This feature is a real answer to the challenge of reducing musculoskeletal disorders (MSD), which particularly affect the wrist on this type of workstation.
Scan without focus
As you know, the scanner is the essential functionality of warehouse management solutions. Usually, to obtain product information from a barcode, you first have to focus on the input field. This is a real constraint, since this action represents a major waste of time when multiplied by thousands of references and makes errors hard to avoid.
To reduce this issue, we have designed a "scan without focus" functionality, which simply eliminates the first step of focusing on the input field. Our users benefit from a better browsing experience, and therefore a better working experience. The margin for error is reduced, and the operator saves a considerable amount of time, optimizing the performance of the entire warehouse.
FAQ
How long does the implementation of HRC Software solutions takes?
Whatever the size of your company and whatever your objectives, all HRC Software applications (Spare Parts, Warehouse, Maintenance and Procurement) can be installed in less than 48 hours.
How is this possible? First of all, our 4 solutions are fully based on the SAP standard, and are compatible with all versions of ECC6 & S/4HANA.
HRC Software solutions use a dedicated namespace and rely on standard transport order mechanics to install the HRC Software add-on in its user environment.
Last but not least, the HRC team benefits from a decade of experience in deploying digital solutions in the specific business environments of its many customers. In fact, we have deployed our solutions for numerous customers, always using the SAP environment.
Our fastest deployment time was 2 hours 36 minutes! Can you beat the record?
Can HRC Software solutions be customized?
Yes, from a visual identity point of view, it's entirely possible to integrate elements of your brand or corporate identity into HRC Software solutions. Starting with the creation of a theme (based on CSS style sheet logic), you can apply your own theme to each application, providing your teams with a tool with a unique aesthetic.
The majority of SAP customers have, over time, enriched their SAP solution with specific developments to best cover their needs. HRC Software's solutions are primarily based on the SAP standard, but the application architecture also allows a number of customer-specific features to be integrated without impacting the HRC Software standard.
It is possible to integrate specific business rules (by extending or overloading backend objects, without impacting the user experience) or to revise application ergonomics by specifically developing new user interfaces. All this while continuing to fully exploit standard backend mechanics.
From the simple addition of a business rule to an existing standard application, to the complete creation of a custom application,the customization of HRC Software solutions is limitless.
How are user authorizations managed on the software?
All HRC Software solutions are based on SAP. As a result, the authorizations granted or withheld to users are directly dependent on SAP roles. So how are they used by HRC Software solutions?
HRC relies fully on SAP users and authorizations, which means we don't duplicate them.
Good to know: It' s important that each user has a well-defined role to differentiate the authorizations to which they have access.
The first aspect is to manage authentication. The user can identify and authenticate via a login and password in order to access a defined SAP system.
Then, the second aspect corresponds to the notion of authorization. Applying this role to a user means granting him access to a particular application tile, or to one or more functionalities, but without giving him access to all existing application tiles.
Finally, the third aspect allows you to define a sector-based organization using a perimeter. This perimeter can be geographical, but also hierarchical, for example. If authorizations are restricted according to geographical location, for example, a warehouse worker in Roubaix may not declare the receipt of goods at an industrial site in Marseille.
How many versions of HRC Software solutions are available each year?
To offer you new applications and functionalities on a regular basis, our team proposes4 major releases each year for our HRC Software applications .
