Enter item name or barcode in stock management app

im building a production tracking app for my ecommerce business. right now we are using the stock management sample app to accomplish this. right now i can only scan or select a barcode but i would like the option of entering a product name from a pulldown list or scanning the barcode. i would also like the app to show the product name after the barcode is scanned for verification. any suggestions?

If I have correctly understood your requirement , I believe you could do it in a simple way.

Since you have referred the sample app. Stock Management App", I too will refer it for suggesting approach.

In the Stock management app, in the products table, please make the [Product] column which has product description as the label column.

With this change, when the app user is adding stock through the 'Add Stock" form, the user will get a drop-down list of product names rather than product bar codes, when the user taps on the product barcode field’s line (Green box in the image below).

Alternatively, when the user taps on the product bar code field’s barcode icon (Orange box in the image below), the user will get to bar code scanning option.

The image below shows the results in “Add Stock” when the user taps on the “Product Barcode” field’s line and when the column [Product] is assigned as the label in the Products table
