The Scan menu page is used for "continuous" QR scanning and tracking status updates. With each scan, the select Status, Processor, Comment, Hours, and Cost Type will be applied to the scanned QR code for the part, assembly, or package.  Currently, the Scan page for updating tracking statuses only works with an actual scanner input device connected to a computer logged into STRATUS. Cameras and scan applications on phones and tablets only work for scanning the URL and opening the scanned part, assembly, or package on a STRATUS landing page in a browser.

3. Click the Begin Scan
4. Scan the QR code. The tracking table will populate. If you have selected a tracking status that is not applicable to the type of code scanned, an annoying error sound will clank and an “Unrecognized Code” error message will display. Otherwise, the tracking status will update in the grid.
