Can Pickware scanners read QR codes?

Pickware scanners also read QR codes, provided the product number or EAN is encoded in them.

The scanners offered by Pickware read QR codes in addition to classic barcodes. What matters is not the format of the code, but which information is encoded in it.

Requirement: Product number or EAN in the QR code

When you scan, the content of the QR code is matched against the product number or the EAN of your products. For a product to be recognized, exactly this character string must be encoded in the QR code — for example, the 13-digit EAN as it is stored on the product. If the QR code contains other or additional content (e.g. a URL or combined information), the product cannot be matched.
