App reviews, troubleshooting, and recommendations
Hello,
I am looking for a way to read the barcodes of my products with a device in order not to forget anything when I prepare a package for an order.
Is there an application?
Is there a setting in Shopify?
Thanks in advance
Hi, @Guerrero!
At this stage, you can only scan product barcodes to process orders on Shopify POS, rather than online orders. There are third-party apps available on our Shopify app store that can help you implement this feature on your Shopify admin, however. An example of such app is the EasyScan: SKU and Barcode App here. You can take a look at that app to see if it will suit your store's needs. Just a note however that apps like this one have been made by third-party developers outside of Shopify. So if you have any questions about them I would recommend getting in touch with the app developers, as they are best equipped to answer app-specific queries.
I definitely see how being able to scan product barcodes to fulfil online orders is a useful option to have within our admin, so I will send this as a feature request to our developers. As we are constantly looking to improve our platform, perhaps this is something we can incorporate in the future. Please note that although I will be submitting this request, we are unable to track it as this is an internal process that our developer team oversees. However there is currently a public facing changelog here that you can check for new features that has been added to Shopify.
