  • Camera icon — scan with the device camera.
  • Quick keys (or Menu in restaurants) — tiles by department, with an A–Z jump.
  • Unknown barcode → Add this barcode → We already sell it (pick the item, then One or Pack of 2/4/6/12/24) or It's a new item (name, department, price). It rings up straight away; cashiers without "Add and edit items" need a manager's PIN.
