How do I set up scan points?
Scan points allow you to track when and where employees are working within a location by requiring them to scan barcodes at specific areas.
Steps to create scan points
-
Option 1: Click your profile in the bottom left corner, go to Manage Locations, and select the location where you want to create scan points.
Option 2: Use the search bar at the top left (or press Ctrl+K) and type the location name.
-
Go to the Scope of Work tab.
-
Create sub-locations (rooms or areas) if you haven't already by clicking Add Sub-Location in the top right.
Creating a barcode for a scan point
-
Select the checkbox for the sub-location where you want to create a scan point (e.g., "Office 101").
-
Click Batch Options > Print Barcode.
-
The barcode will be generated showing the full location path (e.g., "First Floor > Office 101").
-
Print the barcode and place it in that area.
Making a scan point required
To require employees to scan a specific location:
- Go to the sub-location you want to make required.
- Click the three-dot action menu on the right-hand side > Toggle Require Scan.
- A scan icon will appear, indicating this is a required scan point.
- The scan point will now appear on the mobile app as a required task for cleaners.
