Auto Adding Scanned Item to order

[ByronBoardman]

We are setting up our new Square POS system, and finding it extremely annoying that we need to click multiple buttons to simply add a single item when it is scanned.

1. Scan
2. Click set quantity
3. Enter 1
4. Click ok
5. Click add to order.

A simple scan should just auto add a single quantity and if I scan it multiple times it should either add it multiple times or increment the qty.

I've gone through all settings and can't find a way to just auto add a single unit of the item when it is scanned it.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

This one function nearly makes out 10 year old system better.

In case anyone else come across this, it occurs when you use the UOM functionality and don't have just general units.

Basically UOM functionality is broken and can't be used with a hand scanner.

We had 1 Variation with 3 UOM's under it.  the 3 UOM's would scan but not auto add to the order.

As we Don't need to worry about stock we've deleted all our products and reloaded with just 3 variations for each.  (1 for each UOM) and ignoring all UOM conversions.
