Scan barcodes with the camera you already have
Open Scan, point the phone or tablet camera at the code, and the item is added to the sale. No separate scanner to buy, and you can always type the code instead.
Scan Item Code
Use the camera or enter the code manually.
- Ilam tea 200 g Rs 240.00
- Lemon soda Rs 90.00
- Oat cookies Rs 120.00
In short
Camera scan turns the phone or tablet running the till into a barcode scanner: open Scan, point the camera at the code and the matching item is added to the sale. Codes can also be typed under Manual Entry.
The problem it solves
A counter without a barcode scanner ends up typing codes by hand, and a mistyped digit rings up the wrong item.
How it works
4 steps, start to finish
-
1
Tap Scan
The Scan Item Code sheet opens with the device camera.
-
2
Point at the code
Hold the barcode in the frame; the code is read from the camera.
-
3
The item is added
A recognised code finds the item in your catalogue and puts it on the Current Sale.
-
4
No camera? Type it
Manual Entry takes the code by hand on any device.
In detail
What camera scan does for you
-
Any camera
Works with the camera on the phone or tablet the till runs on.
-
Manual Entry
The same sheet takes a typed code when the label will not scan.
-
Your own codes
It matches the scan codes stored on your items.
-
Says when it cannot
An unknown code shows a message instead of adding the wrong thing.
-
No. The POS reads codes with the device camera. If you prefer a scanner or have a damaged label, the code can be typed into Manual Entry or the search box.
-
The scan codes saved on your items. Add them to an item once and they work at the till and in the search.
-
The POS shows a message saying so, and nothing is added to the sale.
