Challenge of Building this Custom Power App
There are extensive products across a variety of categories and it requires a very scalable system to allow uninterrupted operation within their Microsoft Cloud environment.
The Solution:
The application delivered is a very user friendly dashboard that provides a quick overview of inventory & status. Key functionality includes:
- Dynamic Filtering, Sorting and Search Capabilities – Users can filter inventory by product listing or category among a number of other methods. The system also supports searching through extensive product categories, with easy-to-view pagination in order to navigate through different inventory pages.
- Permission-Based Inventory Management – Users can access inventory and manually create additions, edit, delete and admins can restrict based on permissions set. This ensures that only authorized users can perform specific functions and operations.
- Bardcode Generation and Distribution – One can select multiple items for barcode generation for up to 40 items simultaneously. The generated codes can be emailed, printed from the app, or downloaded for offline use.
How we Implemented this Power App
The app was promoted to production from the client’s dev environment and now is able to administrate it in-house. It was demonstrated prior through a POC (proof-of-concept) showcasing the application’s capability to solve the client’s specific requirements and needs.
Conclusion
This inventory barcode generator application shows a successful client-specific solution, combining the robust functionality of Microsoft Power Apps with user-focused design to enhance inventory management processes. After previous vendors failed, this project was a huge success and will help scale a large organization and bring them into the new digital age.
