Case Tokmanni | Managing opening hours with Microsoft Power Apps

Opening hours are a key part of Tokmanni's service, and Tokmanni has traditionally spent a lot of resources managing the opening hours of the extensive store network and communicating changes. After mapping out the alternatives, Tokmanni ended up ordering a Microsoft Power Apps application tailored to his needs, which was selected to be implemented by Efima, who convinced with their expertise.

An efficient Power App to manage your opening hours

Excel out, Power App in!

Managing store information, like opening hours, is often done in Excel. Excel works well until the number of locations grows and following through the changes gets out of control. Using Excel may lead to errors and large Excel sheets are often far from great user experience. But most importantly, Excel does not allow you to follow whether all the changes are correctly and whether the information of the new opening hours will reach all parties involved.
