How to Put Away Products Using Reshelf Mode in Link (Recommended)
With Bulk Reshelf in Link, you can easily move products from location to location. Scan as many product barcodes as you like, and as soon as a shelf is scanned, the products will be moved instantly.
This is our recommended method for inventory putaway as it provides the most flexibility for your operation and doesn’t require bringing a laptop computer or tablet into inventory to assign locations.
You can use a Bluetooth Ring scanner with Link to expedite inventory management even further, as these scanners read barcodes more quickly than the camera in Link.
Reshelf In Link with Ring Barcode Scanner
Open the Link app and tap “Reshelf” from the home screen
Scan all product barcodes being moved to an inventory location. Images of each item will show on the screen as they are scanned
Scan the inventory location barcode to move items to that location
Reshelf In Link with Camera
Open the Link app and tap “Reshelf” from the home screen
Tap the blue scan icon to open the camera app
Line up the product barcode with the camera
Once the barcode is recognized, the top of the page will show “Scanned,” and the SKU will show at the bottom of the screen
Repeat for all items being moved to the inventory location.
Line up the inventory location barcode in the camera app
Once scanned, products will be moved to inventory location
How to Use Quick Reshelf Mode in Lister
If your operation doesn’t have access to using Link Reshelf mode, you can access similar functions in Lister using a laptop or tablet with an attached barcode scanner.
Navigate to the Product page, click "More actions" then select "Quick Reshelf"
Scan the product barcodes into the pop-up window
Click the dropdown under "Reshelf to location"
Scan the inventory location barcode or manually select from the dropdown list
Click the blue "Rehself" button to assign the products to the location
Place the products in the physical inventory location
How to Bulk Edit Locations in Lister
You can bulk edit locations from the Product page using the Bulk Edit option. This method isn't recommended because there are increased chances of error. When bulk editing in Lister, the product and inventory locations aren't being scanned to verify the correct items are in the correct place.
Click the checkboxes to the left of the items you want to move to a new location
Click the Actions menu
Click Bulk Edit
Select the inventory location in the pop-up box
Click the blue “Edit products” button
How to Manually Assign Inventory Locations on the Product Page
In certain scenarios, editing the product location from within the Product page may be more ideal than using Bulk Reshelf in Link (Recommended workflow) or Quick Reshelf in Lister. This guide will walk you through how to edit an inventory location directly on the product page.
Click "Products" on the top right menu of Lister to get to the product page
Click or search for the product you'd like to add a location for
Click on the product's title
Click "Edit" at the bottom of the product's pop-up page on the right-hand side
Scroll down a little until you reach the "Inventory Location" box
Type in or click the drop-down arrow to find and select the product's desired inventory location
Click “Save” in the top right corner
