Thank you so much for this thread! I'm in the same boat everyone else here is - we have been working for about a year now (little progress here & there) to start bar-coding and properly tracking our inventory. B/C we manufacture aerospace components, we have additional rules and tracking regs that generally complicate things..
SO - back a year ago we started bar-coding all our labels with a little Zebra LP 2844 and we put the respective labels on our bins. Over the last year, as inventory has naturally turned over, we have completely infused everything with proper labels with the Type 39 codes. That was step one, the first and only easy step. = P
Next, I've been trying to get my hands on a scanner (not HH) and first get that running with our laptops. My idea goes like this: [Laptop + USB Scanner + Little cart on wheels ===> Ghetto Handheld!!!] Ta-da! If we could at least start with
that, then we can look at a proper hand-held and all the fun required to get them running.
Thanks for your posts Carie - keep em coming, because if you can't do it, I can't either!!! = )
