I am currently doing research for my company to recommend an android tablet for our use in manufacturing.
I know next to nothing about tablets or android so please bear with me.
1) Is there a built in tool in android so we can lock down the device so it may only be used for explicit tasks
on our floor.
Initially I would like to set up a paperless time card system. By this I do not mean a time clock app.
We have tried that sort of thing before and it just doesn't fit with our culture. I am thinking instead of a simple spreadsheet app that would allow the end user to add Job numbers, start times, end times, and comments on rows.
At the end of the day be able to email the file to the office.
Our email is web based so the browser would have to allow that to occur.
I am sure I can write a desktop app that would pull these into our MRP/ERP system.
What we do not want is users downloading other apps, playing games, surfing the web,
What sort of lock down options do I have?
Regards,
~Tom
