Ability to add and subtract inventory items with a barcode scanner and post inventory $$ to project

We need to quickly supply foremen going out the door to the job site each morning with supplies from inventory (tape, brushes,plastic, etc) then post the total as a deduction from inventory and post the project to materials.  I am seeking an outside vendor to supply me with software and scanner to scan these supplies to the job, but I will still have to manually post to every project the materials cost.  It needs to be able to add to inventory when we receive products with the scanner. Would be great if ProContractor had the ability to do this and it is why I won't use the inventory module.

    Debbie, we have the same challenge. We currently use the Materials module. We found a software that CAN integrate with PC because they work on a SQL server as well. Unfortunately, PC does not have the ability to import inventory usage.
