XLScanner is an application that helps you organize your products by scanning their barcode. It automatically makes an excel file of the scanned products which you can send by email. XLScanner originally made for photovoltaic parks where the quantities of the installed panels are big. On the main menu you can set the name of the file to export and also set names or number for CellA, CellB, CellC, CellD , CellE while the scanned item will go on CellF. If you put numbers on cell C,D,E you can increase or decrease them with the steppers while scanning. Every scanned item will create a new line on the xls file .
