Enable Barcode scanner

The issue I have with barcode scanners is that they functionally act as keyboards. So, when using one to scan a barcode in the search box on PW, it should find the barcode number and enter it directly, instantly locating the product. This would be a game changer for the retail side of the business, making it so much faster and easier to walk the shop floor and place orders. It’s confusing that the barcode scanner is already enabled and working perfectly on other Access systems, such as Rotaready, Maintain, and Design My Night, yet it’s not currently enabled on Procure Wizard. It seems like a simple and logical feature to activate.

    Thanks so much for your idea, we love to see our users contributing. Unfortunately we currently don't receive the EAN or barcode against products from the suppliers in PW, but this is something we are seeking to obtain from them when we expand our product catalogue. Once we have this data we will be sure to pick this idea back up.

    I understand you don't receive barcodes from suppliers as hospitality customers don't use them however we are your retail customer and we have found a way round it. All we need is for you to enable your search box to read barcodes which we have already in description of thousands products which works perfectly on any platform but the one designed for purchasing.

    I understand, but we got around it by asking the suppliers to put the barcode in the description and it works.
