Hi Robert,
I try a bit this hhfacility module and it could be usefull if your
specifications match with this component.
However, if you need some features that doesn't exist in this component,
I suggest to improve this one instead of create a new one.
For the barcode reading, if your bar code scanner is a keyboard
emulation like (usb device, android app, etc.), you have just to set it
to send an "enter" key after reading the bar code. Normally it will
validate the form after reading the bar code.
If your bar code scanner is a RS232/422/485, it could be more
complicated depending on your specifications.
Regards,
Julien.

Hi Robert,
There is the handheld component (called hhfacility) in the special-purposes
folder. It has been developed to facilitate your requirement.
Unfortunately, I can't comment on the maturity.
Maybe any other contributor can chime in.

Dear all,
I would like to incorporate the ability to track the movement of inventory
items using barcode scanning technology (scanners, or Android-based
devices).
I have looked through the documentation, but I have not found anything
that tells me what I need to do to make this happen.Is this something that
is supported OOTB by OFBiz, or do I need to write a custom module?
Does anyone have any pointers they can share on how to accomplish such a
feat?
Any open-source alternatives I should be looking into?
Thank you very much in advance!!!
Best regards,Rob
PS: Thanks a lot to Pierre Smits for his answers to my previous
questions. They were spot on!!
