How to scan to receive Purchase Orders, Production Orders, or Transfers?

Scan-to-receive on Orders (PO / Production / Transfer)

Written by Amar Sujith

Warehouse staff can now scan physical units to record them as "received" directly on a Purchase Order, Production Order, or Transfer, reusing the same scanning tech already used for stocktakes (connected barcode scanner or phone camera QR flow).
​

Where to find it?
​
On a PO / Production Order / Transfer detail page, a "Scan to receive" dropdown appears in the table toolbar (next to "Add products") — offers "Use connected scanner" or "Scan with phone".
​


The phone flow opens a dedicated mobile page at app.prediko.io/orders/{orderId}/scan.
​

Steps to scan a PO:

  1. Open a PO / Production Order / Transfer that is in "Confirmed" or "Partially received" status and NOT synced from a WMS or 3PL integration.
    ​

  2. Click "Scan to receive" in the toolbar → choose "Use connected scanner" (HID keyboard-wedge) or "Scan with phone" (opens a QR code to scan with your phone camera).
    ​


    ​

  3. Scan/type a barcode. If the order spans multiple warehouses, you'll be asked to pick one first (single-warehouse orders and transfers skip this).
    ​

  4. Confirm the "received" quantity increments. Scanning past the ordered quantity is allowed; then it shows an amber warning row/toast but never blocks the scan.
