Why use a device camera to scan?

Using the camera on your mobile or hardware scanner lets you quickly scan barcodes or QR codes for items, bins, and SKUs in Wiise. This reduces manual data entry errors by ensuring you scan the correct code every time.

How to use a device camera to scan?

Select the Settings page on your OnTime app.
Select the Scanning Method drop-down menu to select your scanning method.

You have two options:

Camera: Uses your device’s built-in camera.
Hardware scanner: Uses an external scanning device, such as an Android scanner or Bluetooth laser.

How to use your device camera to scan?

Select the scan button on the OnTime app page:
The camera scanner displays.
1. Hold your device up to the QR code or barcode and fit in the frame of the camera preview.
  
  Note: The scan automatically captures the code.
When there’s an error, you’ll get a message to try again.
1. Select Try again. Then, select the scan button.
You’ve used your device camera to scan.

Note: The camera scan action fills in the relevant fields on the app with the correct data. This may populate a bin code number, bring up an item document or show a pick where the item is present.
