Hi Fatima,

Barcode will save some time. Although, you need to point each barcode with the scanner to record each movement.
On the other hand, RFID has much more benefits.  This technology  doesn´t need to point each RFID tagged to an item. RFID tagged items can be inside a closed box, and the anthenas can record their movements automatically.
The scanner can help to find any item tagged with RFID

Hi folks!

We are starting to prepare for a collections inventory and thinking that maybe it's the right time to get ourselves barcode enabled.

Is the Unitech MS926 still the favorite scanner?

And how useful is barcoding, really? How much time would you estimate is saved by doing location moves using a barcode scanner vs manually creating TMS location records?

Any advice is much appreciated!

Cheers,

Fatima
