Inventory data in events
With inventory data, your known contacts are directly available in the VisitReport app. This allows you to immediately access the data of your conversation partner and record the conversation without first scanning a business card.
What is the purpose of using the inventory data?
At trade fairs or in the field, you often meet conversation partners whose contact details you already know. With the inventory data function of snapAddy VisitReport, you can access them like an address book and start your report immediately – without having to exchange data or scan anything again. This saves time and makes accessing known contacts even easier.
- Guest lists at trade fairs, conferences or roadshows
- Participant lists for internal events
- Field service contacts matching a predefined itinerary
What is the advantage of using the inventory data?
-
You don't need to scan the business card of the contact person, who you already know.
-
The inventory data works also in the offline mode of the app.
-
The quick search of the inventory data helps you to find not only the person information, but also the company information.
-
You can also add additional custom fields in the inventory data, which could help you to know even more information about the company ( e.g. company size, customer ID etc.).
