Mobile: Barcodes

You can use a mobile device to scan barcodes to connect physical assets to their digital records:

• Find assets in the system

• Verify asset details during audits

• Reprint damaged barcodes

• Confirm that barcodes have been set up correctly

The mobile app reads the barcode and retrieves the matching asset, eliminating the need for manual searches or data entry.

To scan barcodes:

• A barcode field must be configured in the system.

• Barcode labels must be attached to the physical assets.

• You must grant the Asset Panda Pro app permission to use the device's camera.

4. Point the camera at the barcode attached to the asset. The app scans the barcode and matches it with the corresponding barcode field. The matching asset record opens in the app for review or further action.
