Simple Scan Update App

[billjohnson]

Hello,
I am still newbie to appsheet. I have been trying for days to build a simple inventory app. I just want to have a list of products with an on hand count that I can edit. But I want to open a view where I just scan barcode, It opens (form or detail view?) to edit my on hand amount and click next or automatically reopen scanner again for next product to be scanned and so on. I don’t want to save/sync each time edit is done because it takes too long with 300 or more products waiting to sync, Just want to scan / input count / scan / input count… and save/sync when done.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You for the input. Still having trouble. I can’t figure out how to set up a view with just barcode scanner to open form view and have a setting for finish view to reopen scanner.
