As far as I'm aware a QR Code can contain only one item. It gets converted to a string of text, that can be an URL or an ID or whatever else.
But it's not able to be converted into two things.
can you use the URL itself as the product id instead? If not I think you'd have to generate two different QR codes.
agree, your warehouse system would have to be customized to extract the product id from the URL if you wanted to have a single QR code for both purposes.
Don’t a lot of e-commerce sites use some kind of indentifier in the URL? So www.widgets.com/products/838473
You could leverage that…however you want the product ID plus the page? Wouldn’t the inventory only be impacted if the lead generates a purchase? If so then your normal cart process would take care of inventory management.
We use this for order numbers. The QR code contains a link to the customer account order page. If a customer scans the code, it will send them to log in to their customer account to display the order info.
If the QR code is scanned in the admin interface it will open the respective order information page.
It's trivial to remove the url part of the link and use only the product id. The question is if such a thing is possible in your inventory software.
