When you scan one Barcode the focus is on quantity and you cant scan the next product.
one solution is to add a choice for focused field after adding a product.
Better is when it is possible to scan on product and the focus stayes on the barcode again but you can type in the amount of the last scanned product but you dont have to.
I agree, that should be the way to do it. Have the system set to "shoot" the bar code and have the user enter the quantity.
Note, there are several issues to keep in mind:
1/ you may need to think about serial numbers that may need to get captured using a wand as part of the transaction.
2/ you may need to capture a sales person's code before completing a transaction ie . is the clerk performing the transaction authorised to perform that transaction ?? ( example - spirits / alcohol sales).
