To enable this feature, visit the Additional Modules section of your Admin screen, and find "OrderScan". On that page, click the "Enable" button. After clicking that button, you'll see an Access Key. This key is necessary to enable OrderScan for your users.

After you enable the module for your website as a whole, you can enable individual users to use the new OrderScan feature. Here's how:

OrderScan is an app available in the Apple or Google app stores.  (search "OrderScan" in the app store to find the app).  Users must install the OrderScan app on their device to use OrderScan.

After enabling their website user profile to use OrderScan and having them install the mobile app, you'll want to provide guidance to your customers get set up to use OrderScan from their own device.  

The easiest way for users to log in is to access your website on the desktop computer.  

Navigate to their My Account page and select the "OrderScan App Login" link from the Shopping Tools section.

From this page, users can click the 'Use QR Code" button and point the camera at the QR code and enter their password to log in. Alternatively, they can enter the information displayed on the screen to log in.

Orders that your customers place with OrderScan will appear and import into your system just as if they were placed by any other standard means. The "Added From" value for line items placed via OrderScan will read "Order_Scan_Client", but the imported order will look no different from an order placed via the standard shopping cart. That's because, really, the order is being placed through the standard shopping cart. The items were placed into the cart via the OrderScan module, but the order itself is still placed through standard means.

Supported operating systems for OrderScan

• Apple iOS (tested on newest versions)
• Android (tested on newest versions)

Supported BarCode Scanners

Barcode scanner support is dependent upon the device and capability of the scanner.  We have found Symbol scanners to typically work well, but the support is more a factor of the scanner's Bluetooth stack and the mobile OS.  We recommend you test and decide on a standard for your users.

OrderScan Software Support offered by Aldrich Web Solutions  

OrderScan is a feature built into your website. All applicable website support terms apply to it. Because there are external components involved, there are a few further support items to consider.  For instance, Aldrich Web Solutions doesn't offer support for configuring the BarCode scanner or the end user's device.
