The new mobile application from SAP provides constant access to important data and the key functionality of SAP Business One. You can stay connected and informed at all times and be more productive and effective on the go.
SAP have recognised that more and more small business owners are using their iPhones for business and have an increasing urgency to keep in touch with their business while on the move. Staying strapped to a desk isn’t viable anymore.

Key features include:
- Alerts and approvals – Receive alerts on specific events, such as deviation from approved discounts, prices or credit limits. Process approval requests, generate remote actions and drill into relevant data or metrics to help ensure quick and efficient decision-making.
- Real-time reports – Access built-in reports enabled by SAP Crystal Reports software that present key business information. Add customized reports and easily share report results via e-mail from the iPhone.
- Customer and partner data – Access and edit contact details, view historical activities and special prices. Contact or locate customer and partner records, create new ones and log new activities. All changes are automatically updated within the SAP Business One application on the backend.
- Inventory monitoring – Check inventory levels and access detailed information about current products, including purchasing and sales price, available quantity, product specifications and item pictures.
The mobile application is available for the iPhone or iPod touch with a minimum requirement of version 3.2 of the Mac OS. A short video introduction of the iPhone app can also be viewed: SAP Business One Mobile App for iPhone.
