The day has come when we are ready for Public preview of the reworked Warehouse management app.
Summary
The Warehouse Management app is a complete remake, using the “frontline worker” visual style, as seen in Production floor execution and HoloLens Guide. The new design concepts are based on extensive usability studies including a broad worker population. The solution is designed to help workers be more efficient, productive, and better able to complete work accurately.
The new solution provides the following benefits and capabilities:
- Faster task execution
- “Spinner” for fast quantity input
- Buttons easy to hit with gloves
- Clear text on dirty screens
- Buttons in best corner for user’s grip
- Easier ramp-up of temp workers
- Title and illustration per step
- Full-screen photo to verify product
- Solves top user pain points
- Menu hard to use
- Gray text hard to read
- Hard to learn what step means
- Settings sync’ed from FnO
- Instruction per task step, company can edit
- Great foundation for next steps
- Meets WCAG 2.1 accessibility with focus on situational disabilities
- Scales text to 400%
- Scales buttons to 200%
- Scaling to fit any device type
- Based on resulting sizes of elements
- Swaps parts
- Changes layout sequence
