3 Step 4 Commence stock Pick Open the ScanSKU App. Before commencing your first pick, there are some options you can change and set, depending on your operations. You only have to set these once. In the App click the 3 vertical dots in the top right-hand corner, then select general settings to access the settings menu. Some key options to review. 1. Constraint processing behaviour- This determines if the app checks the barcode being scanned is correct. It is recommended you change this to validate upon forward swipe for this check to occur. By default it is set to only check at the end of the whole pick. 2. Navigation- you can switch between forward or backward buttons vs swiping to go to next order. 3. Text font size- Depending on how many fields, and the length of your product names, for each order when you undertake a pick, you may want to make the font smaller or larger to be more user friendly for the picker You are now ready to start your pick. To this by selecting Start new Stocktake, select the Picking App. Scroll through the first screens. The 3 rd screen advises how many orders are on the pick. The first item to be picked will come up, so proceed to that item/location and begin scanning.

4 Step 5 Completing a Pick Once you get to the end of the pick. you will see a button to save the data and exit. Once saved you can navigate to Send completed Stocktake to the data, or copy the data to your PC using the USB cable. The data is stored in: This PC\U8000S\Phone storage\scansku\instances\ This data will contain what was picked, any short picks and reasons for short picks. Other Notes: The App is customizable. You can change the fields being shown during a pick and the data you wish to capture.

To disable the onscreen keyboard completely:

5 Download the app used to hide the keyboard: Once downloaded, install the app by dragging your finger down on the top menu at the top of the screen. Select the downloaded file. Accept all installation messages. 1. Once installed. Go to Settings Language & Input Current Keyboard Choose Keyboards And enable the Null Input Method Return and select current keyboard and select Null Input Method When I enter the picking module, I cannot see any orders This is commonly caused if the order data is not in the correct format. The order file must be saved as a CSV and in the same format as the template file referenced in this guide. If you wish to use a different template (for example show different data when doing a pick) please contact us and we can discuss how to customize. How do I change the order of the pick? The order the app will send the pick in is dictated by the order the pick lines appear in the input file. Therefore, we recommend sorting this data in the order of your pick path
