Parts - Items Supplied - Link a Barcode

A barcode system allow you to link barcodes (and/or QR labels) to your inventory items.

Our barcode software:, which uses a hand-held scanner, will translate these barcodes and use them to:

  • Print and scan the barcodes
  • Ship, receive and count inventory
  • Handle order management
  • Track items across multiple sites and locations
  • Integrate with the accounting system

Refer to Introduction to SConnect for more information.

Since logging the original part definition on the system, the company may have subsequently decided to use a Handheld Scanner (SConnect) to scan, record and track stock items. Linking a barcode (per supplier) to the part definition is necessary for this process.
