Power Apps Barcode Scanner for Inventory Records - Example App

[@THEDTSMAN]

I realllllly shouldnt say this buuuuuuuuttttt... this little app you have demoed is terrifyingly better than an inventory system ive seen which cost quite a bit! Stick PowerBi on the back of this and boom...a very useful inventory system! Thanks for sharing and bravo Shane 👏

Appreciate that. You would be surprised how many times we have replaced $100,000+ tools with a little Power Apps app. 🤩 And the solution we built was actually better because it didn't have 100s of features to confuse people that they didn't use. 🥰

@@ShanesCows Shane that is so true it's unbelievable!

Hi Shane, would it be possible for your future videos to include KZbin's new automatic audio dubbing feature? Thanks, I love your work!

[@ShanesCows]

What feature is that? I am not familiar with it but always happy to help make the content better.

Hi Shane, there is really a lot missing from a real inventory where the problems of speed and reading of both the article bar code and or even the serial number or batch with expiry date make it all the more difficult. I appreciate the idea and the inspiration, although it would be nice to add the inventory from a label with different information, combining the possibility of evolving 😊

There is always more you can do for sure. But this is the foundation of an exact app I built for a customer who using it to manager their IT assets. It was 2 apps and did everything from ordering to creating the PO to receiving and distributing to users. 😎 Either way, the mechanics are fun to learn to hopefully inspire someone to build something awesome.

Hi Shane. As a teacher this a good way to do textbook counts. A nice feature would be if the ISBN number (which is often a barcode) could be used to get the books title from the internet based on a search of the web

[@ShanesCows]

Weirdly enough, ISBN bar codes don't seem to be supported in my experience. I haven't tried in a couple of years but last time I did they didn't work. Boo. Something like this API would be perfect if we could scan those codes. isbndb.com/apidocs/v2
