But we haven't stopped there, BlueWorx is full of innovative features that takes SAP mobile asset management to the next level. BlueWorx core functionality includes: > Work and Service Orders > Notifications > Comprehensive Asset Inspections > Functional Locations Details > Equipment Details > Material Balances, Issues, Reservations and Exchanges > Measurement Points, Documents and Reading Lists > GEO Spatial Map functionality Please see the Developer Site below for extensive information on BlueWorx. There are two logon modes for the application, 'Demo Logon' and 'Your System Logon': > For demonstration purposes please use the 'Demo Logon' which connects to a Zag demonstration system. Please note that any changes that you make to data in the application and then sync with our system will be disregarded on processing. > The 'Your System Logon' option is for use with your own SAP system and BlueWorx application registered through your Neptune Software Planet 8 Cockpit. It requires SAP, Neptune Software and BlueWorx commercial agreements, installation and configuration. The BlueWorx application is not meant for usage with productive SAP systems. Customers should create their own version in order to avoid version conflicts between the version on App Store and SAP back-end when Zag chooses to update the version on App Store. Full directions for customers to create their own enterprise application version is available from Zag.
