WMS digital data capture

Browser scan input for warehouse management systems and barcode inventory capture. Capture barcodes on handhelds or wedge stations and POST to WMS APIs, middleware, or webhooks your team controls - receive, cycle count, pick confirm, and transfer without replacing your WMS.

Warehouse capture layer

WMS scan handoff by task

Scan2Flow is the capture front end; your WMS remains system of record for stock, replenishment, and audit.

  1. 1

    Receive at the dock

    Scan vendor cartons and PO lines on a phone or wedge PC; POST to your receive endpoint before putaway.

  2. 2

    Count an aisle or zone

    Partial cycle count workflows send each SKU scan to your WMS count API while variance logic stays downstream.

  3. 3

    Pick, pack, or transfer

    Confirm pick tote, pack carton, or bin move with scan-first workflows mapped to separate API paths.

Integration pattern

Works when your WMS or inventory platform exposes REST or sits behind middleware:

  1. Configure one Scan2Flow workflow per warehouse task: receive, putaway verify, count, pick, transfer.
  2. Map scan values to WMS endpoints your integrator provides - no native connector required.
  3. Log operator and timestamp in middleware for audit; Scan2Flow sends scan events only.
  4. See WMS compatibility guide for verification checklist.

Who it fits

Small team

  • Single dock phone scans
  • Webhook to WMS API via Make
  • Pilot before buying rugged handhelds

Growing ops

  • SMB warehouse on handheld Chrome
  • Separate URLs per receive and count task
  • Pick confirm before pack without WMS app menus

Enterprise

  • WMS plus ERP dual post
  • Legacy handheld pilot in Chrome
  • Middleware audit export for each scan

FAQ

Is Scan2Flow a WMS?

No. It captures barcodes and routes values to your WMS API or webhook. Stock, replenishment, and reports stay in your warehouse system.

Do you ship native WMS connectors?

No. Scan2Flow sends scans to REST or webhook URLs you configure. Middleware owns WMS credentials and validation rules.

Can cycle counts run without a full WMS mobile app?

Yes, for scan-and-POST count tasks when your WMS accepts count lines via API. Scan2Flow captures each barcode; your WMS records variance and approvals.

Can this replace WMS scanner software?

Not if you need inventory management, PO generation, or replenishment. Scan2Flow replaces manual typing and slow menus at the scan edge when you already have a WMS API path.
