Our Pecunia solutions are growing. A few weeks ago, we were able to report on the new cloud-based software generation Pecunia. Today, we are introducing another work facilitator for cash-in-transit companies: the Pecunia app.
App support for the safe area
Cash and valuables handling offer great potential for the digitalization and automation of traditional, manual processes. We landed the first big hit for cash-in-transit companies and banks a good 30 years ago with the Pecunia cash center software. But the world of work is changing. Solutions that support the players at different points must also keep pace with this change. Our development is therefore increasingly focusing on “mobile applications”.
This time, the focus was on the vault area. The current state of affairs is that at least one PC must be available here. However, an app solution promises more flexibility. The result is an optional extension for Pecunia 7 that covers specific processes in the safe area – in particular the transfer of containers – and can be used via Android-based devices with Scanengine.
The core of the Pecunia app is to enable vault employees to retrieve containers packed in Pecunia 7 and hand them over to a tour at the container drop-off point. When a tour returns, the containers can also be accepted via the app. This data is immediately visible in Pecunia 7 as soon as the liability transfer of a container is acknowledged.
Pecunia app: added value for safe deposit employees
This approach has many advantages. First and foremost is the low hardware requirement. A PC and the configuration of a keyboard scanner are no longer required. Safe staff can even use the same device as the drivers before to start the Pecunia app.
At the same time, barcode misinterpretations can be avoided by using the same device. The real relief comes from direct access and ease of use. The app only displays the relevant interfaces for container transfer, making work easier.
The intuitive operation and user guidance are based on the familiar ALVARA apps MobiTour and MobiTick. These logistics apps can also be used in conjunction with Pecunia and open up their benefits in terms of transparency, efficiency and safety outside the site.
Looking to the future!
Further functions that promise efficiency in day-to-day work are already planned. The majority of these are related to barcode scanning. In the future, the Pecunia app will make it possible to quickly retrieve packing processes and delivery bills, get an overview of all container information by scanning the label or make changes to the daily schedule. For a maximum overview, we are also working on a dashboard in the app that displays open and completed tasks or BBK orders, for example.
Ultimately, the Pecunia app aims to map and simplify internal processes in the best possible way in order to efficiently relieve the burden on safe deposit employees. It is already achieving this with container handover and will continue to do so as it is developed further.
