Anybody using barcodes readers?

[bloggus]

Prestashop have a product field for EAN codes, but is somebody using in in real applications and dailay order management?

 

Anybody maybe using barcodes reades for:

 

- registering incoming deliveries of products?

- packing order and minimizing choosing wrong products?

 

If so, do you use any special modules?

 

Any input is of interest ...

Question posted long time ago... I need to use barcode reader because I have a lot of products and sometimes my employees collect wrong items. Using barcode reader for fulfillment would be great because then:

 

1) Scaner displays item to be picked along with its location in the warehouse,

2) Employee must scan the barcode of the item before putting it into package for shipment

 

Also registration of incoming deliveries would be faster.

 

Any advice of how to do it? What software to use?

Just some ideas. You need barcodes printed on a picking slip - EAN13, UPC, QR. Simplified, a barcode reader retrieves the number (or characters) and the rest depends on the system you are using.

I am also finding the answer for this question.

Anybody could recommend which software is add-on with prestashop to handle this? If you have too much products, people will make mistake by shipping wrong product..

I did bit of research and found nothing specifically for PrestaShop.

 

What you may do though is to use external WMS (warehouse managment system), preferably one which has integration with Presta because this way you can save money on integration.
