New: MKG WebApps

With MKG WebApps, we are introducing a new generation of applications within the MKG platform. MKG WebApps are small, task-oriented applications that allow you to easily and efficiently perform specific business processes. They are designed to enable employees to quickly and easily carry out specific tasks without the need for the full MKG client. The first 4 standard applications are now available.

 

What are MKG WebApps?

MKG WebApps are small, task-oriented applications designed to execute specific business processes easily and efficiently. Instead of giving a user access to a full ERP system, they only receive the functionality needed for their task. Think of digitally signing delivery notes, adding photos and documents, consulting item information, registering quality checks, and issuing materials.

Not every employee always needs all the functionality of an ERP system. Often, performing one task is sufficient. MKG WebApps offer a clear interface, fewer input fields, fewer actions, faster processing with less chance of errors. By displaying only relevant information and functions, employees work more efficiently, processes are executed faster, acceptance increases, less training is needed, and errors are reduced.

 

  • Fully integrated with MKG ERP. MKG WebApps work directly with the data from MKG ERP. So no double entry, no separate databases, no additional links, and direct data processing. Registrations made via a WebApp are immediately visible within MKG ERP and available for other users.
  • Device-independent. MKG WebApps run entirely in the browser, so no local installation is needed. Supported platforms: Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. This makes the WebApps suitable for use on tablets and smartphones on the shop floor, in the warehouse, on the go, at the customer, at the supplier.
  • Standardized building blocks. MKG WebApps are developed with the same technical basis and components. The advantages: recognizable user experience, consistent operation, faster development, easier maintenance, and reliable operation after updates. This allows new functionalities to be developed faster without compromising quality and stability.

 

Request Leave

Included

With the webapp Request Leave, employees can easily request leave, check the available leave balance, and view previous leave requests. The application fully integrates with the existing leave functionality within MKG and allows leave requests to be registered quickly and clearly from any device.

How to access MKG WebApps?

 

1. Ensure you have a working API +-

Through the MKG API, data and processes can be linked in a structured way. This makes it possible to exchange information, automate processes, and make MKG part of a broader digital landscape. To work with MKG WebApps, the working API is also needed. Do you already use the API due to other API connections or use MKG Shop Floor? Then the API already works. Don't use the API yet? Then this article provides further explanation.

2. Install version 100 and request the license +-

From version 100, 'MKG WebApps' is standardly added to your MKG license form in My MKG. Here you activate the number of licenses you think you need. For the MKG WebApp Request Leave, no license is required; this webapp is free for everyone to use.

3. Sign in to the WebApps Portal +-

MKG WebApps are developed as Progressive Web Apps (PWA's). This allows them to be used directly via a browser, but also installed as an application on a computer, tablet, or smartphone. Although installation is not mandatory - the portal can also be opened directly via the browser at https://webapps.mkg.eu - we recommend installing the portal. It is then more quickly accessible and works more like a normal application, improving the user experience on mobile devices and tablets. In this article, you read how to install the portal.

4. Log in with your own credentials +-

Log in with your own username and password.

 

 

Managing MKG WebApps

 

In the new module WebApps, it is possible to manage device-independent applications of self-developed applications or standard applications provided by MKG.

  • The 'WebApps' tab is an overview page of all available standard WebApps and own WebApps. Here you have the option to set up the authorization of the WebApps per document.
  • The 'Active sessions' tab shows the WebApps opened by users. Through Close, you can close the active sessions.

 

Note!
The new 'WebApps' functionality is in an initial live phase. In the (near) future, more WebApps will become available.
