Use your own barcodes in StageStock

← StageStock: Labels, barcodes and QR codes

đź”´ StageStock

Yes, you can keep your existing barcodes. StageStock gives each item an ID automatically, and scanning looks items up by that ID, so set each item's ID to the number on its barcode.

  1. Open the item and click Edit.
  2. Type your barcode number into the ID field. In the StageStock app, you can tap the scan button next to the ID instead and scan the barcode.
  3. Click Save Changes.

Scanning that barcode then finds the item, in the StageStock app or with a USB scanner in the Scan window on Search and Check Out. IDs can use letters, numbers, hyphens and periods; StageStock strips out other characters. If the ID is already taken, "ID is not available!" appears next to it.
