Scan Barcodes and QR Codes in the Inventory Module

After successfully pairing your smartphone with the Barcode to PC desktop client:

1. Enter the Inventory module and access the feature where you want to apply barcode or QR code scanning.

   Scroll down to Inventory Features for more details.

   Upon first utilization of your smartphone as a scanner device, you need to decide whether you will use QR codes or barcodes for identification in the future.
   In the case of QR codes, an #LS Prefix must be set (for the 'Barcode to PC scanning application' ) for the devices to function correctly.
   See How to Set up the #LS Prefix for your Scanner.

   Important: Keyboard Settings

   Ensure your keyboard layout is set to US English. Otherwise, QR code and barcode scanning will not work properly inside the module.

2. Tap the camera icon in the bottom right corner to start a new scanning session.

   You can also tap on existing sessions; in this case, you can continue by tapping the camera icon inside the selected session.

   
   
   Select between the two scanning options.

   
   

3. Use the Multiple Scans option during a Transaction for continuous scanning.
