Is anyone using barcodes to help with inventory/allocations? If so, are you using the barcode from the product itself or creating a barcode yourself for the item? We have tried both and are having little success with either. When going to scan the barcode, we are only getting about 20% of them to work. Even entering the barcode number itself doesn’t seem to work. If you are having success, what’s the secret?
For bulk materials stored in the yard, such as mulch, soil and ex, we created a barcode for it. (barcode index card, see blow and hanging in the truck).
For chemicals, we use the barcode on the container or bags. Some chemical does not use the format code 39, code 128, UPC-A or EAN-13. but it still works well, which surprised me.
Have you checked out this user guide? I found it is very helpful to me when I set up the barcode at the beginning.

The barcode index card is a great idea. Thanks for sharing the user guide but I’ve read through that. We are having issues with the app reading the barcodes.

Have you checked your App version? The Aspire mobile needs to be the latest version.
We use iPhone and iPad, it works well.
