Excel or Web Barcode System
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I need a straightforward barcode solution that can run either inside Microsoft Excel or through a lightweight web page—whichever proves fastest for you to set up. The core purpose is inventory management:
• Scan items with a handheld USB barcode reader.
• Instantly log each scan to a master list (item code, date-time, quantity in/out).
• Let me update stock counts, search items, and export a simple report (CSV or XLSX) at day’s end.
Keep the build lean: no user log-ins or fancy dashboards—just a clean interface, reliable data capture, and a clear workbook or small web app I can maintain myself later. If you choose the Excel route, please use VBA or Power Query so I can see and edit the code. If you prefer the web version, a single-page app with PHP, Python Flask, or Node.js is fine as long as it writes to a local Excel/CSV file I can open.
I’m ready to test immediately with my scanner, so a concise, well-commented first draft is all I need to get started.
