Logistics:
ü For automated pick/ship/receive verification - No stopping to scan items
ü No reliance on small samples
ü Reduced operator error
ü Verify contents without opening the carton
Inventory management:
ü Easy, accurate inventory counts
ü Reduce out-of-stock items on the sales floor
ü Easy location of items in back room
Return fraud:
ü Can identify items that have not been purchased
