Radio Frequency Identification Devices are responsible for electronically capturing the data related to Materials. Once the data is captured, it is transmitted via Radio waves to the SAP server. The main use of RFID devices is in Warehouses where the data is physically moved from one location to another. It is very convenient for the warehouse personnel to make use of RFID so that all the material movement is captured automatically and the information is transferred to the SAP server.
SAP Auto-ID Infrastructure is the component in SAP Netweaver that provides gateway to the RFID Data. SAp Auto-ID Infrastructure can be used to integrate the following devices.
RFID readers and printers Bluetooth devices Embedded systems Bar-code devices
SAP has extended its power by introducing ADOBE Forms. Interactive Forms based on Adobe software bridges the paper-to-digital divide by helping organizations create Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) forms that have the same high-quality appearance and easy accessibility of familiar paper documents. By using information resident in SAP software, the Interactive Forms solution lets IT departments replace inefficient paper-based processes; include customers, partners, and employees in electronic processes; and extend the reach of enterprise applications to a much broader set of users inside and outside the firewall. Because the Interactive Forms solution harnesses the power of PDF and eXtensible Markup Language (XML), it helps IT departments streamline form processes and capture data more accurately. First, IT departments can easily design sophisticated forms that look like the pieces of paper they replace. Then, users can fill out forms with the ubiquitous Adobe Reader® software while online or offline—without buying additional software. And because PDF forms are intuitive and easy to fill out, IT departments eliminate time-consuming, expensive rekeying of data when users submit forms back to SAP systems in the enterprise.
