What is Scanventory?

The program automatically updates instantly to your E-Commerce store. It is simple to use with our custom inventory labels that you can print from your own computer. Scanventory also makes it easy to keep accurate inventory for Woocommerce stores of any size.
What's the difference between Free and Pro versions?
With the free version of Scanventory you can only generate two labels per sheet. With the pro version you can print two, six, ten, and twelve labels per sheet.
How does it work?
Scanventory is a plugin that is used alongside with Woocommerce, which is a WordPress E-Commerce solution.
The Scanventory system allows the user to print product labels that have a custom QR code. It also allows the user to place labels on any product.
The software uses the attached QR codes from your inventory to allow you to change product information such as the inventory stock, status and availability. Users can do this with a simple QR code scanner.
The system can scan any label that is configured for a QR code reader/scanner app.
