Today we are happy and proud to announce the launch of SAM (Smart Asset Management), a new solution for making the work with SAP PM and CS easier. It is a mobile solution that is built on the currently best technologies on client, middleware and backend.

Since 2012 we mainly implemented the SAP Work Manager, the latest generation of SAP’s mobile field service offering. Now in 2016 we once again launch our own solution - Smart Asset Management or short SAM.

We recently developed a platform independent app based on SAP in the backend, SQL Anywhere/MobiLink on the middleware and Apache Cordova/UltraLite on the client. This app was submitted to the stores from Apple, Microsoft and Google. In this blog we summarize what requirements there are for each App Store - accounts, texts, graphics and more
