Mobile printing solutions for iPad

Hello I would like to see if anyone can help with this...We are trying to equip our service employees with printing capabilities while they are out in the field. I know that it seems that the best way to go is with utilizing the air print feature of the iPad, however looking at the supported printers (found on the apple website) i dont see any that seem all that "portable" in regards to size and weight. How are others handling their printing needs on the go?
Thank you very much!!

Thanks to all who contributed to this thread/
HP offers something called mobile printing solutions.
apparently at Kinkos and other selected locations, a person can send thier docs to be printed rom thie i pad.
i downloaded the HP mobile printing app, but the local Kinkos is some distance away, so i have not yet tried it.
Bersides, there would be a cost per page. for printing.
sending e mail attachments to companies with printing capabilities i have tried.
Staples offers this serivce, but I sent some docs and they had to be adjusted and modified by the Staples printing department to enable correct printing on a page, so that particular abenue may be out.
( i made the document using Noteworthy app and sent it to Dropbox and sent the resulting PDF from dropbox to Staples, who printed the test, but told me it requireed page modification..
I have no idea why as the page i had worked up into a PDF had a standard word processing format.
Thanks for all who contribute their time and experience in these forums

What Mobile Sales solution for ERP 6.0 ?

Hi colleagues,
I have serious difficulty to understand what is the SAP offering for Mobile Sales solutions for SPA ERP 6.0. SAP is vague and just say there IS solution for R/3 (?).
My questions are in two directions:
1. About the "preconfigured" Mobile Sales offerings or xApps or whatever it is:
    - can we use SAP MSR 2.0 with ERP 6? If yes- are still the limitations described in Note OSS 735727 valid (use only with Microsoft PocketPC2003, PocketPC2003 SE and Win32 )
    - can we use xMSA HH with ERP? If not - what this document refers for? : ( https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f635d890-0201-0010-d8b2-8380c23456ed )
2. About the "Online" solutions
   - Could the ERP Internet Sales be used with Handheld?
   - and if yes what are the pros and cons against using custom WebDynpro or ITS?
Thank you in advance for your help,
Jordan

Dear Jordan,
If I am not wrong you are talking about internet sales for R/3 when you say ERP internet sales, which is probably outdated by now. Nowadays SAP distributes something called as mySAP Business Suite which in brief is as follows:
mySAP Business Suite :
CRM - Customer Relationship Management
ERP - Enterprise Resource Planning
SCM - Supply Chain Management
SRM - Supplier Relationship Management
PLM - Product Lifecycle Management
SAP Netweaver
Solution Manager
The current Mobile Sales solutions need mySAP CRM. Some of your questions about the xApp Mobile Sales for Hand Held are already answered in this wiki:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/home/xmsaHandheldClient
Also you can get the installation guide, release notes from here in SMP:
http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000668453&
About MSA HH 5.0 Device requirement- Yes you need to use Windows Mobile PDAs with Pocket PC 2003/ Windows Mobile5.0, Windows Mobile 6.0 OS.
There is another application, Mobile Sales Online, which can work with Blackberry Devices, technical information regarding which can be got from SMP here:
http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000614083&
The info is a bit vague but once you are through with them, you will have the clarity you need. Please mark this thread as answered and my post as solved if my post answers your queries.
Regards,
Veera
Edit: You may also get in touch with your local SAP contact to get the contact info of the product team/manager of both the products above for the best clarity possible.

Can't set up FiOS Mobile Remote app for iPad

I was able to register the FiOS Mobile Remote app for iPad with my login and password but I'm not able to set it up.
I follow the instructions to
click Menu
click Widgets
click FiOS Mobile Remote
I get the following error message:
Mobile Remote
Network Error
Unable to process your request at this time.
Please try again.
If the broblem continues, please try restarting your Set-Top Box
I've turned off the power to the cable twice but still get the same message.
How can I get the app working?

I installed my new DVRs last night and tried to reactive the Mobile Remote app, but got the same error. I wonder if they're having issue with the app (so it's probably not just you).

Differences between BI Mobile 4.0 for iPad and SAP BO Mobile 3.0

Hi:
What's the difference between BI Mobile 4.0 for iPad and SAP BO Mobile 3.0
I need something licence for BI Mobile 4?
Mobile 4.0 is only for All in one?
I have SAP BO 8.81.
Thanks.
Christian.

Hello everybody,
thanks to Deepu I managed to get the iPad app connecting with our BOXI server now, too.
Once again, you need to have/install
>> BOXI 3.1 SP4
>> BOXI 3.1. Mobile Server SP4 ( First I was not aware of this product - be sure to install SP4 for this component as well!)
Having that you find MobileBIService.war within the folder <installation folder>\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\java\applications. Copying this war file to Tomcat's webapps folder should automatically result in the deployment of the corresponding Web application.
One additional remark: I could not open the MobileBIService web application via my browser, i.e. calling the URL http://<server name>:<port number>/MobileBIService/ lead to an error. I ignored this because I guess the web application serves only as a kind of middleware between the app and the "classic" BOXI server.
After deploying the WAR you have a folder <installation folder>\Business Objects\Tocat55\webapps\MobileBIService where you can find the mobi.properties file in subfolder WEB-INF. I let the properties file unchanged, i.e. the only category is "Mobile".
The idea of the categories is, that all Web Intelligence files which are "tagged" with this category can be downloaded/displayed in the iPad app. All other WebI reports are not accessible via iPad.
On iPad I specified <server name>:<port number> as "Server URL", i.e. I did enter nor "http://"neither the name of the web application (MobileBIService), just server name and port number! I specified the "CMS Name" together with the port number (normally 6400), i.e <CMS name>:<port number>.
And then it works...
...finally!

HT1665 Is there a printer cable for iPad.l

Is there a printer cable for iPad.

No. THe only protocol it supports is printing over wifi, either to an air print printer or another wireless printer with an app or with a third party app like print n share or print central.

Is there a PDF print driver for ipad

I want to be able to print individual pages from an excel file so i can email them. So i am looking for a print driver or print program to make this happen
Some of the apps i have a re polaris office, expert PDF, Adobe.

First, do you have Apple's own “Numbers”? It's not only able to export / mail PDF files from inside the app (unfortunately, there's no “Send to” inside – this has always been a problem), but also do it textually – as opposed to just making a screenshot of the current screen and making a PDF of it by accessing the screenshot in the Camera Roll in a PNG->PDF-conversion capable PDF reader.
If you still want to go the second way, I've tested most of the PDF / generic docs readers I have.
The ones supporting image → PDF conversion are as follows:
PDF Reader Pro (Yuyao; $6; http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pdf-reader-pro/id300298606?mt=8 ) (can convert single images only!)
PDF Reader (Kdan Mobile Software; http://www.kdanmobile.com/en/pdf-reader/ ; http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pdf-reader-ipad-edition/id367816156?mt=8 ; $5) (several in one! Just follow the built-in help at “i” icon at the bottom left > select PDF Scanner)
PDF Reader Pro (iTech; http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pdf-reader-pro-edition-for/id364502063?mt=8 ; $10) (multiple; tap the “Scan” icon at the bottom center, tap the film cartridge icon in the bottom left; tap all images you want to import; when you're finished, tap “Make PDF” (second icon on the bottom left)

BI Mobile 4.0 for iPad

And finally, yesterday was released the BI Mobile for iPad.
We already have a BO 4.0 SP01 server with BO mobile installed and running (i can connect there by using Windows Mobile emulator).
When creating the connection to BO server from the iPad application, I don't know which url address I must write there.
Is the url to BI Launchpad? Or is a url to web services?
http://myboserver:8080
http://myboserver:8080/BOE/BI
http://myboserver:8080/dswsbobje/services
Any of these addresses returns me a Connection failed error: There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server.
There is no help published yet, so any help will be appreciated.

Solution for iPad slow download from app store

First, I have to clarify this is just my solution for the problem I encoutered. It may not work for you, but I think it's nice to post here for whoever needs it some day.
I live in Sydney, using TPG as my home network provider. In order to use iMessage on my iPad, I followed the solution on this community to change to DNS to 8.8.8.8. And it works, which I thinks it's really odd and Apple never gives any explaination.
But after I changed the DNS, downloading from the app store became really slow. My iPhone 4S can download the same app with the same network about 4 times faster than my iPad does. Initially, I thought this problem is caused by jail breaking. So I jailbroken my iPhone 4S as well (haha, this is what I learned from Apple-Think different), but the problem still. Turns out this problem is caused by the 8.8.8.8 DNS. so I changed the DNS back to my router domain, in my case 10.1.1.1 (for some people it may be 168.1.1.1), it become fast again. So you may try this way when you have the same slow download problem after change your dns to 8.8.8.8.
I don't know why this works. I don't know why iPad needs to change the dns to use iMessage in Australia. And I don't know why download from app store become slow after the change. If you know the reason, please be kindly to tell me, I'd love to hear about it. Now I have to change my DNS back and forth to download apps quickly and use iMessage, if you have better solution for this issue, please be kindly to let me know as well. Good day mate.

SAP AutoID Infrastructure vs Sybase SUP Mobile based solutions for RFID???

Hello All,
I'm trying to come up to speed on the basics as we have projects going that have RFID, Barcode and mobile design implications. As mobile has evolved we're looking at some opportunities give the number of consumer level devices available. We know we won't be able to simply replace all existing (ruggedized, etc) devices but the oppertunity is there to do some new things, or old things with new devices. At the same time we have our existing RFID infrastructure (Not SAP AII). My question is... is there any overlap between an SAP AII infrastructure and Mobile Infrastructure? For example from what I gather an AII infrastructure typically has an RFID middleware for data management device monitoring, etc that is integrated with SAP AII. Sounds very similar to mobile architecture with a middleware piece taking care of decide management data integration & management etc. Kind of troubling to me that 2 pieces of heavy infrastructure are needed for these two scenarios. Oh and lets talk XMII also which we also have installed.
So just comming up the curve on all this. Is there any overlap here where RFID architecture could be handled by a good mobile design? I suspect any overlap is conceptual and the rub will be the device support.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi
I have been following SAP Mobility as well. These are my gathering.
SAP Sybase SUP - This is being recommended for heavy weight applications. There are additional components on the SUP layer as, Sybase Control Center and Afaria for monitoring and device management.
Project Gateway - This is being recommended for light weight application. It does not require any additional infrastructure, only software components to be added. I have not heard of any release date for this product. Conceptually it seems very good and based on the demo that was presented in Tech Ed 2011, the development was very simple as well.
ITS Mobile - This is integrated ITS in ECC. SAP console has been replaced with product. This is used mainly for the RF transactions in Warehouse Mgt. No additional infrastructure, some minimum configuration and ABAP development.
BI Mobile - This requires an additional infrastructure and software components to be added where by BI can interface with the mobile devices.
SAP Sybase have also built solutions for Workflow using the SUP platform.

Limit on devices per user that can connect to Office Mobile or Office for iPad apps?

We are are on an E3 license for Office 365. What is the maximum number of devices that a user can connect to the various mobile apps? I had hard 5 was the max, but can not find any documentation to support this. We are interested in using both Office Mobile
and the new Office for iPad apps and want to understand any restrictions at the user level. Thanks.

Hi,
You are correct 5 devices max per user, these devices could be a PC/Tablet/Phone etc... (they all count as a device)

Cisco Mobile 8.1 for iPad

We are trying to install and test Cisco Mobile 8.1 for iPhone. we have entered all necessary info and get back a "protocol not suppoeted" message. Has anyone successflly deployed Cisco Mobile 8.1 for iPhone on the ipad?
