Alternate Workflow 3A - Barcode Scanning Option

  1. Click the “Barcode Scanning” option. This will open the scanning dialog box. Make sure the cursor is in the barcode textbox and scan your first barcode.

     

  2. As each barcode is scanned it will add the product to the list. Items are checked against the Purchase Order.

     

  3. Each scan adds a single quantity of the product to the list so if the same barcode is scanned multiple times, it will increase the existing product row. It will highlight the new or updated row.

  4. If barcode scanned is not recognized, the barcode scanning log will highlight in red and provide an option to associate barcode with a product.

  5. Select Product and based on product setup, select barcode type either Sales, Stock, or Order. The options will vary based on product setup. Product selector will be limited to products on the Purchase Order.

Alternate Workflow 3B - Check List Option
