Scan work on the floor

Update job progress with a scan, no keyboard needed.

What this is for

Floor scanning lets the shop update jobs by scanning a QR code on the printed job sheet — fast, hands-free progress updates that keep the boards and schedule accurate without anyone stopping to type.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Print the job sheet so its QR codes go to the floor with the work.

  2. 2

    Scan a QR code with a phone or scanning device — it opens the scan page and processes the step automatically.

  3. 3

    The step starts or finishes, and the change flows to the boards and timeline instantly before dropping you on the department board.
