Shop for Product

You have the ability to create Categories of Products or Web Drill Downs within Eclipse to present to the user. These drill downs can be specific to the selected customer or global for all customers. If you tap on a product category in the list, another list of product categories will be presented or if you are the end of the drill a list of products will be presented. Please refer to the How do I create Drill Downs in Eclipse? article found in the Tech Tips section.

The presentation of the Product Categories and product results list is the same in both Android and Apple.

You can also search for product by doing a manual product search. To do a manual product search, type in the search criteria in the Product Search bar at the top of the page. In Android, the Search field is displayed when you press on the Search Icon.

The manual product search can be done on the Home, Shop, and Quick Pad screens.

The app uses the same search function as Eclipse based on the search criteria entered. The following fields are used in building the list of product results:

• Product description
• Keywords
• UPC
• Catalog number
• Customer part number (if exists)

You can also search for a specific product using the internal Eclipse product Id, preceded by a dot (".").

The number of search results will be listed in the blue bar and will be sorted based on the default product sort as defined in the control file, Innovo OE Touch Default Product Sort. If blank, the app uses Product Description as the default sort.

There are three ways to scan a barcode:

• Use the barcode icon located to the right of any product search field (Apple) or accessed using the search icon (Android), which utilizes the device camera
• Use a Socket Mobile Bluetooth scanner https://www.socketmobile.com or Linea Pro scanner https://ipcmobile.com/products/ios-peripherals/ which are integrated into the app
• Use any 3rd party Bluetooth scanner

Notes:

• Linea Pro is only available for Apple
• When using a 3rd party Bluetooth scanner, the cursor must be in the product search field before scanning

By default, the app will try to search for the product by comparing the scan results to the UPC code and internal Eclipse product ID if preceded by a dot ".". There is a setting available in salesperson mode that can be enabled in app settings, "Scan as Search". If enabled, scanning a barcode will do the same matching logic as it does when doing a manual product search.

We’ve added a couple of tricks to make your life easier while shopping for product. At any point as you scroll through the products, you can click on the status bar at the top (the status bar is where the time is displayed) and the page will scroll to the top of the results list. This is enabled in every screen that contains a table. Another trick is if you ever want to go back to the main drill down list you may do so by double tapping on the shop icon on the bottom bar. You can also use the back button at the top left-hand side of the screen to navigate back through your path.
