Q & A with Will English
Q: I have a prospect that creates very long Purchase Orders (PO) and wants to be able to receive the PO items using a wireless scanner. It seems do-able but I would like to be sure I'm not missing something. Thanks.

A: Provided that the items have UPC's and the UPC's are entered into QuickBooks Point of Sale (POS), you can use your scanner to add them to the receiving voucher. A perfect example is a shoe store. All of the boxes come with a UPC, so you simply open the box and scan the item.
