How to Streamline Operations with UPC Lookup
When implementing our Warehouse Inventory System, the time-consuming and repetitive nature of manual warehouse inventory data entry is prone to cause human error. That is why we designed the UPC Lookup feature to solve this issue. Our Barcode Inventory System for warehouses integrated this tool to help you and your employees automate the process of data entry, making your warehouse a more productive place.
What is a UPC and How Does UPC Lookup Help You?
UPC stands for “Universal Product Code”. As the name implies, it is a unique identifier for items based on barcode technology, used across the world to keep tabs trade items. In our context, we made the UPC Lookup feature in our warehouse management system (WMS) to identify and auto-populate inventory information when your warehouse receives new items. This feature helps you:
- Automate the receive inventory process
- Gather information from UPC databases online
- Consolidate data all in one place
How to Enable WMS UPC Lookup Feature in Our WMS
1You or a designated system administrator can enable the UPC Lookup feature in the System Configuration Settings of our warehouse inventory system. If the UPC code entered is found, the system can populate that information into the inventory item file.
Please note that while our system has integrated quite a few databases, it is not guaranteed every UPC that is entered. This feature is also available on our Mobile App, compatible with iOS and Android devices.
What Happens Next?
Users can continue to search for additional UPCs here if needed. From the results, users can select which UPC information they need to be populated in our WMS. This will automatically be entered into the inventory item file.
