OrderTaker Info OrderTaker OrderTaker is a suite of applications for sales force automation that is very similar to SalesAssistant, but does not get into the same level of detail. It runs on a Newton device and provides a paperless order taking system. OrderTaker is designed to allow a salesperson to easily access the information required to take a customer's order. It frees the salesperson from searching through multiple printouts to access customer information, and the applications run on a device that fits in the palm of your hand and uses handwriting recognition for data input.
Most input is done by tapping and selecting or by writing in numbers for quantities or products.
Up to 4 levels of tax authorities can be handled, including the ability to flag each level as to whether any previous levels of tax must be included in the tax calculation. Also included in this update is the ability to flag a customer, through an extension to the built-in Names application, for the level they are taxed at. This allows you to set up customers that are tax exempt and have no taxes added to any invoices for those customers. The export file created has also been updated to include all the new tax levels.
