Settings
The settings within the Scanner App allow for customization of app behavior at an organizational level, affecting how all users interact with the app.
Accessing Settings
To modify settings, navigate to the side menu and select the "Settings" option. This action directs you to the settings interface where various configurations can be adjusted.
Settings Options
Show Prices
Functionality: Toggle this setting to control the visibility of item prices within the app.
Impact: When enabled, prices recorded in the system are displayed, which may differ from physical price tags. Useful for transparency and cross-checking.
Show Item Descriptions
Functionality: This setting determines whether item descriptions are shown on emailed tickets.
Impact: Disabling this option simplifies tickets by omitting detailed item descriptions, which might be preferable in certain scenarios for clarity or privacy.
Include Nailed
Functionality: Decides if the nailed quantity (reserved stock) should be included in the total available quantity displayed.
Impact: Useful for inventory management, providing a comprehensive view of total stock including reserved items.
Tax Percentage
Functionality: Allows the specification of a tax rate to be applied on transactions.
Impact: When a tax rate is set, all created tickets will automatically include a tax calculation line, facilitating financial processes.
Building Groups
Purpose and Configuration
Functionality: Building groups are designed to organize building codes into manageable categories.
Setup: Multiple buildings can be mapped to a single group or assign each building to its own group based on operational requirements.
Benefits
Inventory Management: By grouping buildings, the app can display inventory levels at the group level rather than individual buildings, aiding in streamlined inventory checks and balances.
Best Practices for Configuring Settings
Controlled Access: Ensure only authorized personnel have the "Scanner App Settings" permission to maintain consistency and security in app configuration.
Consistency Across Users: Since settings changes affect all users, communicate any adjustments clearly to ensure all team members are aware of the new operational parameters.
Regular Review: Periodically review settings to ensure they align with current organizational needs and practices.
Conclusion
The settings in the Scanner App play a crucial role in tailoring the app's functionality to the specific needs of an organization. By understanding and correctly configuring these settings, administrators can ensure the app operates efficiently and meets the dynamic needs of their business environment.
