If you change the same to scan, it gets updated.

The upgraded warehouse management app offers some more default settings options like:
- Display Current Qty is Cycle Count - It displays the current quantity of each product in the Cycle Count. You can either set it to On or Off. By default it is set to On.
If you set it off, you won't be able to see the current quantity of the products in the Cycle count Workflow.

Along with the home screen (Email Inventory Updates CSV - in the bottom left corner), this feature is now added in Settings as well)
- Click on Please Select -> Add Email -> Enter email address -> Click on Add -> Click on Done.
- Enable/Disable Workflow - All the workflows are by default enabled but if you wish to disable any of the workflow, click on the toggle, next to the respective workflow and close the window (click on 'X' button).
The workflow/workflows that were disabled in Settings will get Disabled on the home screen too.
- Sync from BackOffice Data Filtering - In the backoffice there is a lot of data related to modules. With this feature, you can filter the data and get a custom view of the data only which you want.
For example - For the Shipping Module Custom View, if you want to see only the orders that are shipped
- Click on the Arrow sign, alongside.
- You can see a pop-up with options like a picker. We here are choosing the Shipped option.
- Click on Done.
This way the data will be filtered and you will be able to see only the orders that are shipped.

- Close the window (click on 'X' button), once the timeout is set.
Last 1 minute of inactivity, you can hear a warning sound and see a message asking whether you want to stay signed in or want to sign out. If you don't click any of the options, you will be automatically logged out after the session expires.
You can enable or disable the unit cost column in the cycle count by setting it on or off.
By default, the unit cost column is displayed in the Cycle count feature.
- Click on Display Unit Cost in Cycle Count.
- You can see a pop-up where you can select either on and off. As an example, we are making the display - off.

- Enable Line Item shipping - You can enable or disable this option by setting it on or off.
- By default, it is set to off. When line item shipping is enabled, in the Pick-Pack-Ship flow only Line Items in Sales Order, associated with the Selected Stock Location (top left location in the warehouse app home screen) will be displayed.
For example, let's consider one sales order under Pick-Pack-Ship.
Here you can see all the line items under that particular sales order. Total, there are 7 items.
Now, in the Settings, when Enable Line Item Shipping is set to "on".
and when you go back to that particular Sales Order under Pick-Pack-Ship workflow, you will see only those line items that are associated with the set stock location. Also, only those line items can be sent to Shipstation.
Earlier there were 7 line items, now you can see the one that is associated with the selected stock location.
Once all the Settings are done, click the icon to return to the Home screen.
