Generate barcode / QR code for tasks or notes

timr supports the selection of tasks and the recording of notes via barcode and QR code. This has the advantage that texts can be entered quickly and errors can be avoided.

You can generate barcodes and QR codes with one of the following tools, for example: https://www.the-qrcode-generator.com/ or http://www.barcode-generator.org/.

1. Generating tasks as code

To generate a QR code from a task, copy the task into a barcode generator.

For example, if the task is:
    Kunde Maier
            - Projekt
                  - Aufgabe123
code "Kunde Maier/Projekt/Aufgabe123". This way the task will be found unambiguously in the task selection.

If you only code the name of the task, e.g. "Aufgabe123" (i.e. without higher-level tasks) and if the task occurs more than once, the task is not selected immediately but timr lists all tasks with the same name.

2. Generate notes as a code

In the iOS app, you have the option of scanning text in the notes field and customer-specific fields via barcode. This function is still in the works for Android.
For example, create a barcode from your production order number "FE-123456" that you want to enter in the notes field for the associated task "Aufgabe345".

Now you can use this barcode to scan the production number "FE-123456" in the note field via the scan function.
