My brother emailed me asking for software help. Robust business software is not my forte so I thought I'd ask you guys instead. Here's his email:
Travis,

I need your help. Our company President has tasked me to look for software that can track (company)'s small tools & equipment for our Equipment Yard & Shop. The software must include bar coding technology & labels which integrates with the software seamlessly. It also has to be database driven. The simpler it can be the better. Per our I.T. Department, this software must meet the following criteria so they can support it in-house
+
·++++++++ Server Software (the back end): Microsoft Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server.
·++++++++ PC Software (the front end): Preferably something that runs in a web browser (like CRM). Our second choice is anything compatible with Windows 7 that doesnt need special help (such as Terminal Server or Citrix) to work remotely.
+
Lastly, if it can, he would like to see this database play nice with our current accounting software called JD Edwards AS/400 so we can cost tool & equipment rentals to our jobsites and/or individuals without having to transpose numbers redundantly into two systems.
+
Any thoughts here?
+
Respectfully,
+
Chet
