Mobile Data Capture for Shelf Management

Retail employees scan barcodes on items to check the availability of products on shelves and in the stockroom. Stocktaking is either done by hand or with a dedicated barcode scanning device. With Mobile data capture employees can scan items using any smartphone or tablet.

Challenges

Manually checking stock levels and going to a computer to reorder is slow and inefficient
Dedicated barcode scanning hardware is expensive to purchase and maintain
Employees require training to use unfamiliar scanning hardware
