Ditch the Paper—Accelerate Order Picking with Axolt’s Barcode Scanning App

Here’s What You Need to Know

Still using paper pick lists in your warehouse? You’re not just behind—you’re bleeding efficiency and accuracy. Manual order picking may seem simple, but it creates serious friction as your business grows.

Ask yourself:

  • Are order errors causing returns or refunds?

  • Is your team struggling to fulfill growing volumes on time?

  • Does outdated inventory data impact decision-making?

If yes—paper is your bottleneck.
It’s time to go digital.

Axolt’s Barcode Scanning App for Salesforce Warehouses

Axolt’s Barcode Scanning App is built natively on Salesforce to help warehouses:

  • Eliminate manual errors

  • Pick orders faster

  • Sync inventory in real time

  • Streamline fulfillment from pick to ship

Whether you use smartphones, tablets, or rugged handhelds, Axolt replaces outdated processes with real-time scanning and automation.

Why Paper-Based Picking Is Costing You

Paper isn’t just slow—it’s expensive. Here’s how:

1. Slow Fulfillment = Lost Revenue

Clipboards and pens slow your team down. Late picks = late shipments = disappointed customers.

2.  High Error Rates

Paper offers no validation. One misread SKU can lead to:

  • Wrong shipments

  • Returns and replacements

  • Refunds and brand damage

3. No Real-Time Visibility

End-of-day updates leave procurement, sales, and service flying blind.

4. Unscalable Operations

As volume grows, so does the chaos. Paper simply can’t keep up.

5. Training Takes Too Long

Teaching new hires paper workflows adds time and increases human error.
