Before entering scanning mode, the application will offer the option to set the default parameters that will be set to CI after each scan. Eg. For each CI you want to scan, you can set a specific status, location, etc. Position your mobile or scanning device so it detects the code. If you are using a mobile you do not need to tap the screen for it to read. Just hold still until it has focused. When the scan is made two different scenarios will unfold: The item is new to the system in which you are asked to either Add CI Associate with CI – gives the Inventory number to the CI you choose. Scan again The item exists – in this case you can write a remark (not necessary) and save the scan. The remark is saved on the scan log, not on the CI. You can at any moment discard the scan by tapping the check icon . |
