Smart View

Profile

Smart View is my first attempt at a business-oriented application on the Palm system. It is an application whose primary use is an add-on to Microsoft’s Smart List program, which is a part of their Great Plains suite.

The product can take one of these “Smart Lists” and transfer the data over to the Palm. It is intended to be used in businesses in which drivers have stops to make throughout the day. The idea is that the manager can download the stops into a Palm device and hand it off to the driver. The device would contain only the records and relevant information that particular driver would need.

If a company did not own the Microsoft software, Smart View came with a wizard that would allow the user to convert any text-delimited file over to the proper format, then sync it up with the Palm.
