The bane of every business that carries stock of any type is ...stock-taking! I have worked in retail for much of my early working life, and stock-taking was considered a particularly unpleasant task. Of course stock-taking is not limited to the retail trade, most businesses carry stock of some description.
We all know that barcodes are nothing new and have been around for decades, but in the past their use has been limited to use by larger companies. With software and hardware now being available for a fraction of the price, there is no reason why even the smallest company cannot take advantage of barcode scanner technology to speed up stock control as well as recording sales and returns etc..
