Inventorying Stock Items with Embedded Weight Data in the Barcode

You can add a product whose barcode has embedded weight data to the inventory list by scanning the barcode.

This procedure is useful mainly for checking whether the rows of an inventory are with correct amounts. If you have a scanner, using Stock Tool to add the products to the inventory is recommended instead.

  1. Scan the barcode of the product in the Inventory view.

  2. If the product is found, the SKU without weight data is displayed.

  3. When you add the product to inventory by selecting its checkbox, the weight is added to the Inventory column.

If the product has been already added to the inventory, and its barcode with weight embedded is scanned again, the weight is not added to the inventory; instead, only the row matching the search is displayed.
