    Automate barcode scanning into an inventory sheet to add to actual inventory and subtract

    Good Evening All,

    I am by no means very knowledgeable at Excel but I'm giving it everything I have to learn and understand it.

    I would like to have two cells on my sheet that I scan into based on if I'm receiving finished goods or shipping finished goods.

    If I'm receiving finished goods I would like the sheet to add to the actual inventory.
    If I'm Shipping finished goods i would like to subtract from actual inventory

    I would also like to know if after the inventory has changed if the cell that I would be scanning to can reset itself to scan another or if i would need to integrate a reset/delete button to scan another?

    Any and all help would be very much appreciated.

    Thank You

    .
    Here are two example projects that I saved from this Forum (I believe).

    I don't have any first hand knowledge of either ... they were simply saved in my tool box for future reference. Hopefully they will give you a good
    start on your project.

    Oh, I'm late, but since I prepared a macro you can have try. Copy the macro to the 'Inventory' sheet module; it detects the event Worksheet_Change.
