Common workflows for warehouses

Use these workflows as a starting point, then adjust locations, fields, labels, and permissions around your real count process.

Split the count by zone

Create count areas by aisle, rack, or room so each operator can work a clear section and supervisors can see progress without merging paper sheets.

Scan item and location together

Use product barcode fields plus location fields to confirm what was counted and where it was found, which is useful when stock moves between bins.

Export for reconciliation

After the count, export the quantities and supporting fields to Excel or CSV so the back office can compare against the warehouse system.

Most scanners that send barcode data as keyboard input can be used on supported devices, including many Bluetooth and USB scanner setups.
