Barcode Scanner

The barcode scanner lets you look up and manage assets from your mobile device. It runs directly in your web browser with no app to install.

Tap Scan Asset Barcode on the dashboard, or navigate to the scanner from the main menu.

Scanning

The scanner has two input modes, toggled with the buttons at the top:

Mode	How to use
Camera	Tap Start Camera and point your device's camera at a barcode. Use the flashlight button in low-light conditions
Keyboard	Type or paste the barcode number and tap Find. Also works with USB and Bluetooth wedge scanners — the barcode is entered and submitted automatically

When an asset is found, you'll see its name, number, status, custodian, condition, return due date, and service status. If the barcode is not recognized, verify the number matches an asset in the system.

Operations

After scanning, action buttons appear based on the asset's current state:

Operation	When available	What it does
Check Out	Asset is available	Assigns the asset to a custodian
Check In	Asset is checked out	Returns the asset from its current custodian
Transfer	Asset is checked out	Moves the asset from one custodian to another
Audit	Always	Records an audit for the asset
