      With mobile scanner picking, all the products in your warehouse need to be labelled with unique barcodes. Pickers use a mobile scanner that displays the picklist for an order along with the location of each item. If the picker scans the barcode of item that is not a part of the picklist, the scanner notifies them of the error so that they can remove it. This error-checking gives mobile scanner picking a high accuracy rate.
