Updated over 3 months ago

What’s New: You can now create unique barcodes for your inventory, allowing you to scan and update inventory items.

Barcodes can be created at any time and assigned to any inventory item. When a barcode has been created, updating an inventory item on the mobile app is as simple as scanning it and updating the information.

Note:

  • You can generate a barcode on the web from a desktop computer.

  • Use the mobile app to scan an existing barcode.

From the homepage of the mobile app, select 'Scan Barcode'

This will open the camera app on your device.


Step 2:

Step 3:
