Printing and Consumables

By using a barcode printer and barcode-generating software, you can print labels individually or multiple labels at a time. These labels can be affixed to medication and bin & shelf locations; this lets you expedite check-out, and more conveniently and accurately track your inventory. Barcoding offers a myriad of batch and wireless hardware and software solutions to automate your inventory process.

Scanners for POS applications

At one time all retailers used to manually type in prices at the point of sale; today, one would be hard pressed to find a retailer that does not take advantage of barcode technology. This is particularly true within pharmacies because customers demand the most efficient service possible, in addition to receiving the proper medication.

In a pharmacy, barcoding technology can be used to assure pricing and inventory accuracy for both meds and OTC merchandise. While barcoding technology does not change your business process, it will improve productivity and accuracy, enhance customer and employee satisfaction, cut costs, and increase profitability.

Data Collection - Inventory

Either done using a wireless connection (RF) or through batch collection, data collection with portable terminals can help you perform hospital operations including inventory control and bedside operations.

Batch data collection refers to types of applications in which information is collected and stored on a handheld terminal. After the work is complete, the handheld is placed into a docking cradle and the information is uploaded all at once into the host application. Batch solutions are ideal for intensive scanning applications where the collected data is not needed immediately.

Wireless data collection, or RF data collection, though more expensive to implement than batch, will provide you with updated information instantaneously. This can be important where the information is time sensitive and needs to be updated constantly.

Because different hospitals have many different needs in which batch and wireless data collection can help them become more efficient, Barcoding Inc.'s solution allows users to easily create their own custom solution. Once the data has been collected, it is uploaded directly back into the ODBC database. Companies have developed handheld applications for existing inventory, security, and route accounting databases. It is possible to integrate both batch and wireless applications for varying needs within your facility.
