To get started using barcode scanning, you need to first purchase and connect a barcode scanner that is compatible with your POS.

Next, add barcodes for your menu items. A barcode can be a unique combination of letters, numbers, or both letters and numbers.

Please note that special characters are not allowed.

To add a barcode for an item, please follow the steps below:

Step 1: Visit Setup > Menu Setup.
Step 2: Search for the item you want to edit using the search field.
Step 3: Click the Edit button.
Step 4: Enter the unique barcode in the Barcode field and click Update.
Step 5: Finally, click the Refresh POS Menu Items button.

Next, at checkout, scan the item's barcode with the hand-held scanner connected to your POS. Please make sure your cursor is on the Search Menu Item field on your POS screen when pointing your scanner at the barcode. The item instantly gets added to your bill.
