vWork supports barcode or QR code scanning

In a vWork Job, any custom field which is a Free Text custom type field allows you to complete the field by scanning a barcode or QR code.

To scan a barcode or QR code:

1. Go to the Fields page in the mobile app.
   
   
2. Tap the barcode symbol shown in any free text type custom field. This opens the scanner on your device. In this example, we have used a free text type custom field labeled Notes.
   
   
   
   
3. Scan the barcode and:
   • Android: Tap the ✔ in the red banner to confirm the scan.
   • IOS: Tap Details in the banner to return to the field then tap Done to confirm the scan.
     
     

Can I log in to the mobile app with a barcode?

You can also log in using a barcode or QR code on both the Android and IOS apps.

See here for some instructions on how you do that.

What types of Barcodes/QR does vWork Support?

As a general rule we can scan most if not all 1D and 2D barcodes and QR codes, the main caveat is that we do not support 3D barcodes.
