It's really meant to be used together with a USB barcode scanner. This can be purchased for really cheap online. 2. No, the plugin was made specifically for the HikaShop backend. It could be made to work with HikaMarket on the frontend, but it would require some development work.

How ? 2 - Please, Can we use the Barcode stock manager plugin from frontend (HikaMarket Vendor point of view ? How ?")* Hi Nicolas, in first of all, as always, really many thanks for your reply. Then, I want to specify once more that I am writing thinking that they are really very important, critical functions (HikaMarket Multi Vendors point of view) and that HikaShop is very close to the solution. **1** - "...This can be purchased for really cheap online.." = Sure. But this is not a cost question (Google Lens" App, in the example, is a free App), this is a User Friendly question. To have the Scanner in a mobile device (App) means for workers (Vendors) that they do not need to carry any device with them and can Scan on the fly, anywhere in the warehouse (without being tied to the USB). Also, consider that there are objects that can be brought close to the Scanner, but 90% of the time it is the Scanner that has to approach the object to read the code. Approaching objects to show code is a job, while scanning with the camera is not. Maybe, the simplest right approach can be: Internet > Logged (User Permissions) and "that's all", like the [ HikaSerial is doing](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/254-hikaserial-eticket-tutorial.html) **2** - Well, we are using HikaMarket Multi Vendor, so, for us to have it working with Vendors (and its ...) in the frontend is a must. **3** - The [ warehouses stock management should be considered](https://www.hikashop.com/forum/product-category-display/905146-warehouses-management-vendors-a-step-forward.html), but, as far as I understand, it shouldn't create any complications to the Barcode plugin Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtL3Byb2R1Y3QtY2F0ZWdvcnktZGlzcGxheS85MDUxMzktYmFyY29kZS1zdG9jay1tYW5hZ2VyLXBsdWdpbj90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Away](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86315 - Thank you received: 14274 - - 4 years 2 weeks ago [\#345528](#345528) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Barcode stock manager\[ plugin](/forum/26-product-category-display/905139-barcode-stock-manager-plugin#345528 "-- HikaShop version -- : 4.6.1 -- Joomla version -- : 3.10.10 -- PHP version -- : 7.4.30 -- Browser(s) name and version -- : Chrome Hi guys about the plugin: 1 - Please, Can we use the Barcode stock manager plugin with Google Lens App as scanner ? How ? 2 - Please, Can we use the Barcode stock manager plugin from frontend (HikaMarket Vendor point of view ? How ?")* Hi, 1. I don't see how Google lens could help with that. What would be possible would be to add this library : [ github.com/serratus/quaggaJS](https://github.com/serratus/quaggaJS) We would add an extra button "scan barcode" to the plugin's interface in the backend which would open an area with the smartphone camera to scan the barcode and fill the input field with the barcode number found by that library. 2. If you need vendor to use it, it would indeed be necessary. 3. Yes, the plugin doesn't need to know about warehouses. It can just update the products stock regardless.
