Hello all,

I appreciate you reaching out here in the Community for support. I'm glad to lend a hand with barcode scanning for your inventory.

The ability to scan inventory directly into QuickBooks makes business life a little easier, so here are a couple of options to get you back on track.

As the support agent mentioned, it's possible that the scanner is moving the number too fast. Another reason for the item number showing in the quantity field could be due to formatting. Here's an article explaining specifics of barcode scanning, including number formatting: https://community.intuit.com/articles/1554857-use-barcode-scanning.

Additionally, an integrated app such as SmartScan could be beneficial. More information about this and similar apps can be found here: https://desktop.apps.com/apps/136920#!overview.

This information will help you get back to business.

Keep up the great work. I'm always around if you need someone to talk to about QuickBooks.
