Provisioning Options for Windows Mobile Devices

To provision the Mobile Sales application to multiple devices in an enterprise, you can use Afaria OTA Deployment Center to install the application on the device or to send a link to device users so they can install it when desired. For small deployments or evaluation purposes, the Mobile Sales application can be installed on the device using ActiveSync

The Mobile Sales application files are installed in the Sybase Unwired Platform directory. The default installation location is: <UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\UnwiredPlatform\Mobile Sales for SAP CRM. The CAB files are located in the WM subdirectory.
