barcode scanner

I used to work as a data encoder in a certain company. I was the one who encoded the name of the stocks or items and its barcode every time there is a new delivery. Later on we were issued barcode scanner. That made my job easier. I don’t have to encode the barcode anymore because I will just scan the barcode with a barcode scanner and it will be captured already in the computer. All I have to encode was just typed the description of item or product.
