(06.24.01-00) Scan the barcode using device camera

The Check-In, Check-Out, Asset Update, and Location Update window have been enhanced to use the device's camera to scan the assets, asset location, Bin location, and shelf location.

This feature is available to use by default and without any additional configuration settings in the app.

The existing functionality of using RFID tags to scan assets will continue as usual as long as the RFID receiver configuration is available in the app.

Sample Workflow

1. In the Asset Manager app, open any window which is supported with Camera/barcode icon.

2. Tap the Camera/Barcode icon.
