Android Check In

The Check-In screen allows you to Check-In inventory that has been checked out to the customers. While checking in inventory does not actually add inventory (quantity) to an item, it frees up that inventory to be checked-out to another customer or to be included in a pick order.

 

Tap on Transactions > Check In.

The Check In screen will appear.

Note:

• Fields with an asterisk (*) are mandatory. Also, you can lock the field, refer to Android Pinning Data. The magnifying glass icon allows you to search for an item. It will navigate to the Search Items screen where you can search for items.
• You can use the keyboard to enter the information in any field. Or if you want to scan a barcode, use the barcode scanner. Tap on the Barcode symbol, the scanner will appear. Scan the barcode and the field will display the scanned barcode number.

• Site-Item/Category Restrictions

• If the “Site-Item/Category filter” is enabled on the web application and "Working Sites" is set on the mobile application. 

• When you search for an item, the list will display the items that have no category and the items that fall in the working site and site-item category restrictions.
• Similarly, if a location is already selected, then only the following items will be displayed - items with no category and the items that fall into the working site and site-item category restrictions.
• An alert “Item category is not allowed at the site” will appear when you type any restricted site name on the Site field.
