There are two parts to ERP Suites Scanability—the application, which runs on a data collection device, and the web-based administration console. To get started, you must first configure your environment in the console. Then, download and install the Scanability application onto each data collection device.

Configuring Scanability

  1. Click the Configuration icon on the administration console to view all the settings that define scanning prefixes and enforce security timeout rules.

  2. Barcode prefix settings are available for an item, location, supplier, and work order. You can edit the value of each setting, and it will be applied globally to all users and flows in Scanability.
  3. To enter multiple values, use a comma-separated list (i.e., 1,2,3).
  4. Don't forget to click Save before closing the configuration window.

Installing the Scanability app

Once configured, you are ready to download and install the Scanability application on each of your data collection devices. Installation requires a unique client token.

To find your client token:

  1. Log in to the Scanability web console.
  2. Click the book icon on the right side of the top navigation bar to view Documentation.
  3. Click Getting Started to view your client token.

Android users can find Scanability in the Google Play Store:

  3. The publisher is listed as ERP Suites.
  4. Select the application and click the download button.

iPhone users can find Scanability in the App Store:

  1. From your mobile device, open the App Store.
  2. Click the search icon and type in "ERP Suites Scanability." 
  3. The publisher is listed as ERP Suites.
  4. Select the application and click the download button.
  5. Confirm the download, launch the app, and log in.

Updating your data collection devices

Keep in mind the master configuration is managed in the console and stored in the ERP Suites Cloud. Since data collection devices operate on a local copy of this configuration, each time you make changes to the master, your devices must sync back up to the ERP Suites Cloud to reflect the updates.
