How do I create articles lists?

Articles lists are a practical function for collecting and grouping articles and finding them again quickly. They are particularly suitable for regularly needed products or project-related purchasing lists. With articles lists you can order articles directly or manage them together with others.

Advantages of articles lists

  • Quick access to frequently used products

  • Organisation through themed lists (e.g. “Office supplies”)

  • Direct ordering of individual articles or entire lists

  • Team collaboration through sharing and joint editing

  • Creation of barcodes for further use (e.g. simpleScan)

    To create a new articles list:
     
    1.  Navigate to the articles lists overview

    Creating barcodes
     

    Barcodes can be generated directly via simple system for all articles in an articles list. They are particularly suitable for warehouse processes, allowing requirements to be reordered quickly and easily.

    You will find a detailed explanation in the following article: simpleScan.

           3.   There you can choose which value is stored in the barcode, e.g. article number,                     customer article number or external reference. There you can also choose, if so, which additional content is printed and whether an article image should be displayed.
