Scan To Verify with SKU Barcode

Is there any way to scan to verify orders with SKU number instead of UPC?

Not all items have UPS codes and it is an extra step to put a UPC barcode on all the items and upload them to ShipStation, especially for whom working with massive different items with low quantity. 

I print SKU as a barcode and put them on all of my items, and the SKUs show many other useful pieces of information like location, date of listing, purchase price and more. This way I organize my items. 

What I like to do is, print the packing slips with SKU barcode on them, pick the items then when scan the packing slip to verify the item I scan the SKU label on the item ( instead of UPC) and verify it. 

Thanks

  Hello Sam, 

   

  Thanks for this post and for being a member of our community. 

   

  You definitely can use Scan To Verify with Item SKU. You would simply go to Settings>Account> Workflow Settings and change Scan To Verify Item Preference to Item SKU.

  

  Please feel free to let me know if this helps you out so I can mark this post as resolved for you.

  Good Day.  Is the a scanner and Bluetooth adapter recommended. 

   

  My goal is to print my packing slips, scan the slip, pick products and scan them to ensure accuracy of the order.  pack and ship (print label)the order from the scanner.   Is there a portable printer to wear  as well?
