Barcode scanning

To use a barcode scanner you have to have set up barcodes on your products, like the image above shows. If you not have done that, please se how to set this up in the settings section. Let’s have a quick look at how this works.

• Connect a barcode scanner to the computer (technical details about this is out of scope – so you have to ask the vendor for the scanner how to do this and more)
  • Note: The scanner needs to be set up to scan + enter
• Pick List – Pick Order (tab)
  • When you enter a pick you will notice the icons/action buttons, the first in the row is the barcode focus button. If this is green, your scanner can do its job, if not you have to click that button – this gives focus to scanner input.
  • Scanner icon: if the barcode button is green, the scanner icon will blink and you can use a scanner to scan barcodes.
  • Scanning barcodes: When having pick order tab open on a order, you can use your scanner on your physical products (away from the screen), when you scan the scanner sends barcode + enter (as a keyboard input) and this is picked up by Pick List.
  • If your browser support sounds, a sound will be played when a pick is done (confirm) and another sound is played if the product does not exist in the order (error sound), and also a product not found notice is shown.
  • When you have scanned, the green ‘Pick’ button will be disabled (gray) and the Undo button will be enabled (dark grey). In addition there will be a dark grey check mark on the product image.
    • Scan items individually for quantities greater than one, with a clear counter display (e.g., 1/4) for each scan, ensuring precise tracking and efficiency in processing bulk quantities. (see image above)
    • Option in settings to bulk scan items, e.g. 4/4 in one scan.
    • From vs 2.4.15 you can also enter barcodes manually (click the button to see barcode input)
    • From vs 2.4.14 you can enter your own quantity when picking an item (or use bulk pick quantity – to pick all at once).
• NOTE: If a item does not have a barcode, you need to pick it manually using the green pick button.
