Description

It would be nice to have a feature to find a document by scanning it's ASN qrcode label.

These qrcodes can be created with e.g. paperless-asn-qr-codes and is able to generate adhesive lables which can be applied to the documents. And the documents are scanned with the labels. When consuming those documents with set PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_ENABLE_BARCODES and PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_ENABLE_ASN_BARCODE in paperless-ngx these labels are used for setting the asn. These barcodes also can be used as document divider for mass scanning.

The labels have the form by convention: ASNxxxxxxxx (number of numerical digits varies, e.g. 202500001 250001 or other. this depends on the user defined number scheme)

But what, if we do it the other way round?

There is a document already in paperless. Then it would be a fast method to find it in paperless with paperless-mobile:

  • qr-code scan the ASN code of the document with the preferred qrcode scanner
  • share the ASN-String
  • select paperless-mobile for sharing consumer
  • in paperless-mobile: from the string ASNxxxxxxxx -> asn:xxxxxxxx is generated
  • paperless-mobile searches for asn:xxxxxxxx.

By using the preferred qrcode scanner the whole scanning process does not need to be implemented by one's own.
