I have Epicor installed on the tablet. Its like your normal desktop but mobile. I have 5 licenses for MES. Each time you login, it uses a license.

Subject: [Vantage] Using a Tablet for MES Labor Entry (E9)



We are exploring using tablets for labor entry. We successfully remoted in six Windows 7 based tablets and laptops into one workstation. Everything worked fine except we were restricted by the number (6) of MES licenses we have. I was surprised it counted each device remoting in as one license since they were all done through remote desktop to one workstation, and all used the same log in to the MES screen in E9.

Has anyone done this and found the same or experimented with other options for using tablets for labor collection?
Thank you,
