INDUSTRY — Retail
From receiving and stock counts to online order picking and price checks — put the Scandit SDK on employee smartphones and dedicated scanners become unnecessary. Youngpoong Bookstore, Walmart, and Vans·The North Face stores already work this way.
Field challenges
There are never as many scanners as employees. Work queues up while staff wait for a device, and purchase and repair costs keep stacking.
When store inventory disagrees with the system, online orders get cancelled. One global apparel company was losing 15% of online orders this way.
Checking one price or stock level means a trip to the back-office PC. Repeated dozens of times a day, that walk consumes shelf work and customer-facing time.
Solutions by workflow
The Scandit SDK goes into the POS and inventory apps you already use as a scanning capability, so you adopt it workflow by workflow without replacing store systems.
Capture dozens of items on a shelf or in a box in one camera view, with quantities counted. Stock counts become possible during opening hours.
Only the barcode you're looking for is highlighted on screen in AR. Picking mistakes disappear, even on shelves lined with near-identical packages.
Price checks, product lookups, and stock movements run on a proven built-in scanning UI. No screen design needed — apply it as is.
Capture the barcode and the price text in one pass to compare system price against shelf price. This is how Staples Canada runs price audits.
