A real-life example in the warehouse:

Warehouse operators frequently need to select predefined options when performing scan-related tasks, such as selecting a bin code for stock movements. Currently, these selections must be entered manually, increasing the risk of errors and slowing down operations.

Problem to be solved:

• Operators manually input values instead of selecting from a predefined list, leading to inconsistent data entry.
• Increased risk of human errors in selecting reasons, statuses, or other key attributes.
• Slower scan-related workflows due to manual input.
• Lack of flexibility to easily integrate dropdown selections into custom scan flows.

Expected result:

• Implement a dropdown object that allows predefined values to be selected within scan customization flows.
• Reduce human errors by providing a standardized set of selectable options.
• Improve scan flow efficiency by allowing faster input selection.
• Ensure flexibility for different use cases.

Proposed solution:

• Introduce a dropdown object that can be incorporated into scan customizations.
• Dropdown options (valid values in SAP language) should be configurable via settings
• Ensure that the dropdown is accessible in relevant scan flows and adaptable to different use cases.
• Allow easy integration into existing and future scan customizations.
