3. Build Your First Automation

Create an automation that will change the default status of the QR status column to “On Order” (for example) when a new item is created. This is the first step of your workflow.

You should now have two status columns in your board: “QR Status” and workflow “Status”. And all of your workflow steps should already be created in your workflow “Status” columns. Now it is time to create the automation conditions that will enable you to use one QR code to change your workflow “status” based on the progress of the workflows.

4. Add Status-Based Conditions

Click on “add automation” and fill it with the conditions that fits your workflow. In this case, when the status value is “On Order” → The default value → Scanning the QR will change it to “Ready to Ship” → and to reset “QR status” back to ready to scan. Save this automation.
