Until recently, when a Sage 100 user who didn’t own a multi-bin solution wanted to track inventory in multiple bins in a single warehouse location, they had to get creative.

For several years now, ScanForce Mobile Sales has provided Sage 100 users with a way to make sales from anywhere on any device. Sales reps can view inventory levels and pricing in Sage 100, create sales orders, capture signatures, and even print receipts - no office needed.
