Accessing Web Platform via Mobile Device

In addition to being able to access ActiveControl via a PC or laptop computer, it is also possible to access ActiveControl Web Platform via mobile devices such as tablets and mobile phones.

This will only be feasible if your local organisation has enabled such access via mobile devices. As long as you can access your organisations’ SAP system (specifically the SAP system that is being used as the ActiveControl Domain Controller, which you access via the Web Platform) via your mobile device, you should typically be able to access the ActiveControl Web Platform as well. In most instances, this may also require you to be connected to your company VPN.

The majority of ActiveControl is available via mobile devices. This includes all key screens such as:

Unavailable Functionality on Mobile Devices

The following ActiveControl capabilities are only available on PC. They will not be seen via mobile devices due to the complexity / volume of information resulting in them not translating well to smaller screens.

2) Transport Form – [Advanced Options] tab
3) Activity Reports
4) DevAnalytics
5) Most Administration tiles
