Search Inventory with Barcode Scanner

You can use the Barcode Scanner button to search for inventory in the mobile app.

Note: The Barcode Scanner button is available on the inventory search page when you use the mobile app (for both iOS and Android devices). The button is not available when you use the browser-based Oracle Field Service application unless a plug-in is developed and configured.

In general, parts and equipment have barcodes printed on their package. The Barcode Scanner button added to the Search field helps you find a part or equipment without the need to type any text and tap the Search button. This feature allows the Barcode Scanner to scan the barcode and Oracle Fusion Field Service to run the search without the need to tap the button and populate the result.

These screenshots show the Inventory search page with the Search field and the Barcode Scanner option on small and large screen devices respectively:

To use the Barcode Scanner:

1. Click Search in the header of the page. The Search field with the barcode scanner appears. On a large screen device, click Search in the header. A drop-down list appears with the barcode scanner button in it.

2. Click the Barcode scanner button and place the device in front of the printed barcode on a package. The barcode information is captured and the search is run.

All the relative inventory items appear on the page. You can select the required part or equipment and continue with your activity.
