Overview of App Source offers for Business Central
Tasklet Mobile WMS is available in two Business Central offers on App Source:
Get It Now – Designed for Tasklet Partners installing Mobile WMS on supported to be used with devices managed via SOTI MobiControl. Customers using this version offer are expected to work with a partner, ensuring a smooth onboarding process. Tasklet does not contact these customers directly.
Free Trial – Aimed at end customers, allowing them to install the Android Mobile WMS app from the Google Play Store, connect to an Online Business Central Sandbox, and explore its features without a Tasklet Partner. Tasklet will reach out to provide guidance, as a partner may not yet be involved.
...
The Mobile WMS app in Business Central is identical across all installations. However, the Android app on the device differs slightly based on how it was installed:
Unmanaged (Google Play Store) – No customer license needed, but each release has a built-in expiration date. If you see a license error, simply update the app from the Play Store.
Managed (SOTI) – Requires a customer license from Tasklet.
...
The Sandbox Configuration Guide helps set up Mobile WMS in an Online Business Central Sandbox. It appears after installation if the progress window remains open, as a top-bar notification, or by searching “sandbox configuration guide” for “Mobile WMS Sandbox Configuration Guide” or “conf guide.”guide”
This guide:
Configures Business Central by setting up a user and validating that recommended roles are in place.
Creates a required App Registration for device login, either automatically (recommended) or manually via a separate guide.
Generates a Connection Guide with three barcodes for easy connection:
App Download – Links to Mobile WMS on Google Play.
Endpoint Info – Connects the Android app to BC.
User ID – Simplifies login; users only enter a password (and MFA if required).
...
Yes! It’s a great tool for consultants to quickly connect a mobile device to a customer’s online sandbox . with a copy of their production data! So, remember to bring a device when visiting a potential customer for quick setup and demos!
...
Both types can use the Mobile WMS API in a dependent extension, allowing some customizations and testing of dependent apps.
Why do I need an App Registration?
An App Registration in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly known as Azure AD or AAD) is like giving your app (in this case the Tasklet Mobile WMS Android app) a pass to use Microsoft's login system. It tells Entra ID, "This app is trusted, and here's how it should handle sign-ins."
When someone logs into a web service using their Microsoft account, the app registration helps:
Identify the app with a unique ID.
Allow or limit access to certain data or services.
Handle logins securely using Microsoft’s authentication system.
Without it, the app wouldn't be able to check user identities or access Microsoft services, like Business Central, safely.
Can I use the Free Trial or Configuration Guide in an OnPrem environment?
