Current process

Paper cards are simple but lose visibility after removal

Once a card leaves the container, users cannot see who has it or whether the order has been sent. Digital forms often add too much data entry and undermine the Kanban principle.

  2. 02

Frequently asked questions

Questions about this scenario.

Does KanbanSignal also work with a two-bin system?

Yes. The replenishment point can be attached to the reserve or empty-bin trigger while the physical two-bin logic remains unchanged.

Do users need a dedicated QR-code scanner?

No. The QR code can be scanned with the native camera of a regular smartphone. KanbanSignal then opens the prepared ordering point in the app or browser.

Is a new demand immediately visible to the responsible team?

Yes. Confirmed demand and subsequent status changes are synchronized in real time across connected mobile and desktop devices.
