Install Stocktakes Online

Print this and scan it with the device. For scanners with a 1D laser, which cannot read a screen.

The address

stocktakesonline.com.au/a

Type it if the scanning does not suit — it goes straight to the download.

What to do

  1. On the scanner, open Chrome.
  2. Tap the address bar so the cursor is in it. A scan is typed into whatever has focus, so this step is the one that matters.
  3. Scan a barcode below. The address types itself in and the download begins.
  4. Android will ask whether to allow installing from the browser. That prompt is normal for an app supplied directly rather than through a store.

2D scanner?

Use this instead — it can be read straight off a monitor, no printing needed.

Code 128 — for a 1D laser

Three sizes of the same address. Start with the middle one; go larger if the scanner is old or will not read.

Code 128 barcode: stocktakesonline.com.au/a
Medium — try this one first
Code 128 barcode: stocktakesonline.com.au/a
Large — for an older laser, or reading from further back
Code 128 barcode: stocktakesonline.com.au/a
Small — fits a label on the device case or the charging cradle

If it will not read: print at 100%, not "fit to page" — scaling a barcode down is the usual reason. Keep the white margin either side of the bars clear, don't scan through a plastic sleeve at an angle, and try the large one.
