BACKTRACK Components:
Databases
BACKTRACK includes the following five databases for the
developer to customize to meet specific tracking requirements.
User Database: Used to create and edit information about
the authorized users of BACKTRACK.
Location Database: Used to create and edit information on
the locations in which an item can be stored.
Item Database: Contains the items that are being tracked.
Relationship Database: Allows you to link items to a location
or to another item.
Transaction Database: Keeps track of item activity (including
history and reservations).
Label Designer
BACKTRACK's Label Designer module includes advanced bar
code labeling capabilities for printing to any of over 600
thermal and laser printer drivers, as well as standard Windows
printers.
Flexible Report Designer
BACKTRACK's Report Designer module provides unlimited reporting
capabilities you can create, edit and print professional
reports using selected criteria and flexible setup options.
The Report Wizard simplifies the process by helping you
through each step of report generation, and the new Advanced
Report Designer is available if you would like to add advanced
report settings.
Transaction Module
BACKTRACK users will spend the majority of their time in
the Transaction module, tracking and observing their item
or inventory tracking applications. Transactions include
checking items in or out, restocking or taking items from
inventory, moving items to an unlimited number of locations,
and reserving items for future use.
Application Templates
An application pulls together a combination of database
structures, labels and reports into one system. You can
choose one of the pre-defined templates included with BACKTRACK
or design your own application using the Application Wizard.
PDT Support
Even remote tracking is easy with BACKTRACK. Using a BACKTRACK
supported PDT, users can perform check in/out, take out,
restock, and move functions wherever they are. Each
program includes one free PDT add-on license. BACKTRACK
PDT 5 license add-ons are also available. BACKTRACK supports
