How to transfer or adjust quantities without scanning a barcode

Move materials between locations, assign them to jobs, or correct quantities directly from the app; no barcode is required.

You don’t always need to scan a barcode to move materials around. Whether you're managing a warehouse, a truck, or a job site, here’s how you can transfer and adjust quantities directly from the app, no scanner required.

ℹ️ When is this useful? Scanning is faster when you have barcodes set up; but these manual flows are essential when labels are missing or damaged, you're working from a desktop, you're doing a bulk update, or you're assigning materials to a job from the office.


Step-by-Step: Transfer Between Locations or Jobs

1. Open Your Warehouse

  • Head to your Warehouse from the main screen.

  • Browse through your materials or use the search bar to find what you need (e.g., search “pool”).
