I'm trying to solve an issue with my clients and I'm wondering if RemoteScripter will help.

 

I have a store where customer service reps take orders into FM Go on iPad minis. Management wants those orders to show up on a different machine (iMacs) in a different part of the office where they get filled.

 

Order fulfillment has a layout that should refresh every time a customer service rep submits an order. Right now, I have an OnTimer script running every 20 seconds to check for new orders, but that's not frequently enough and I hate repeating onTimer scripts.

 

Can RemoteScripter trigger a script from an iPad to an FMP client?

 

It's not in the current spec, but I'm wondering if it can go the other way too, from FMP to FM Go (or FM Go to FM Go)?

 

Thanks,

David

 

RemoteScript can definitely trigger an FMP script from FM Go. With RemoteScripter listening on FMP, just hit the listening port from FM Go (with a web viewer for example). 

 

Unfortunately, since FM Go doesn't support plugins, it's not possible to trigger a script on FM Go with RemoteScripter.
