AOS - Automated Order System
The Automated Ordering System (AOS) is a digital tool designed to simplify order and inventory management in organizations. It connects senders and receivers, allows customization of available items, and defines user roles within the system. This setup streamlines communication and order processing, making the system efficient and reducing errors and delays.

Overview of the AOS v2
If you are setting up your AOS for the first time, you should know, that there is a particular sequence for setting up your AOS.
Firstly, you should start with setting up the Packages. Here you can add or remove specific components or parts and pack them into the packages.
Example: Your factory specializes in car assembly. So, you need to have components like wheels, windshields, engines, bonnets, doors, etc. stored in your warehouse. Materials with something in common (storage location, assembling at the same time/station…) should be packaged together. So now we can create package Body panels with components bonnet and doors because they are assembled at the car at the same time.
Now we can register our devices. Here is how to perform their registration and connection.
Each factory has workers divided according to their position, like forklift operator, assembler, warehouse manager, etc. So the next step is to create Work roles for your factory.
Work roles should be grouped by their similarities
Example: One of the job positions in your factory is Forklift Operator. Each forklift with the mounted tablet can work with different weights, but all of them are forklifts. So now we should create a work role called Forklift operator and assign sub-roles like Forklift 3Ton, Forklift 5Ton, and Forklift 12Ton.
Now we can open Editor and set up our desired connections between our registered devices. It is using nodes for managing and controlling, who can send and receive orders, which orders they can see, or how they can interact with them.
It is essential to correctly set up nodes in the Editor tab. If not, orders can get lost.
The last tab is the Analytics tab. Here you can track the efficiency of your employees in a large customizable table full of data. Every column and row can be customized by your preference, added or removed, or highlighted if needed.
