QRcode to update the record

[dhan0315]

Hello guys, i just want to know if possible to update record using QR

For example i have tracking web system:

Entry Form / database
-id
-control_no (this is QR that will be using for QR scan)
-name
-address
-contactno
-status (hidden - that will be use for updating record purpose)

Flow:
-Entry form set to public (Open to all)
-Special account will have the access to view Entry form records AS PENDING LISTS
-->Through this dashboard, I need to put Scan QR function which i don't know if possible
-->After Scan, It will search control_no automatically then update this record and put some status like "RECEIVED" then it will remove to PENDING LISTS and passing it to RECEIVED LISTS else "NO RECORD found" display

That is my question if possible to update record from the list view using QR

Thank you guys so much in advance for your inputs!

Have a great day!!

It should certainly be possible, the field element has an option for scanning QR Codes.

I imagine you would have to set an event on the field element you are scanning into to perform the automatic search. You may want to do this via AJAX to prevent the page refreshing should the QR code not scan correctly. The rest of the updating of records etc can be done via form plugins.

Also, you may want to set the element that you use for the QR Code for the be focused when you load the form.
