QR code inventory labels for boxes and containers
QR code inventory labels give physical containers and catalog records a simple connection. Generate a QR label in Palstora, print it, attach it to a box or item, and scan it later to open the related record.
QR labels are included on every plan.
A catalog is useful only when it meets the physical space.
Names and locations can disappear behind a stack of boxes or a crowded shelf. Without a visible identifier, you may still need to open several containers before you know which record to use.

QR code inventory labels in practice
QR labels give a container or catalog item a physical marker. The label does not replace the catalog. It gives you a direct way to return to the corresponding record when you are standing in front of a box, drawer, shelf, case, or item.
