Labels that know what to do.
Every item, folder and kit gets a code the moment it exists. Print the labels on A4 sheets from the office printer or on a Brother label printer, and each scan opens the right thing: an item’s sheet, a shelf’s count, a whole kit in the basket.
Free for one editor and ten borrowers, with unlimited items. No card needed.

- Item, shelf and kit labels
- A4 sheets or a Brother roll
- Old barcodes keep working
Four labels, four jobs.
A label is the brand’s one physical object, and in ItemTally each kind starts something different when it’s scanned.
- Item labels
- Name, place and code under the QR. A scan opens the scan sheet with one verb ready: take, return, take some.
- Shelf labels
- One per folder. A scan offers Count this place, Move things here or See what’s here.
- Kit labels
- One per kit. A scan puts every piece of the kit into the basket, ready to hand over.
- Personal QR cards
- Credit-card sized. On the person’s phone it opens their My things page; at your counter it starts a basket for them.
Made for the printer you already have.
Two A4 sheet layouts and a Brother roll cover most offices and stores. Choose what goes under the code: the name, the location or the serial. On a half-used sheet, set the start position and nothing is wasted.
- Avery L7160, 21 per A4 sheet, also used for shelf and kit labels.
- Avery J8165, 8 per A4 sheet, for bigger items.
- Brother 62 mm roll (DK-22205), cut at 29 mm.
- Tag 50 × 25 mm for cables, tools and small things.
Labels you already have keep working. Barcodes on the packaging and stickers from your old system scan straight to the item once their code is attached.
Attach codes from a column when you import your spreadsheet, or scan an unknown code and choose Attach to an item. EAN, UPC and Code 128 all work.

Questions people ask
Which sheets and printers work?
Avery L7160 (21 per A4 sheet), Avery J8165 (8 per sheet), the Brother 62 mm roll (DK-22205, cut at 29 mm) and a 50 × 25 mm tag. Print at 100% scale.
Can I use a half-used sheet?
Yes. Set the start position to skip the labels you've already peeled, and printing begins at the next free one.
Do I have to relabel everything?
No. Barcodes on boxes and labels from an old system keep working once their codes are attached to items, from a code column when you import or by scanning an unknown code and choosing Attach to an item.
What does a QR label point to?
A web address with the item's code. Any phone camera opens it: people in your workspace land on the scan sheet, and anyone else who finds it sees a found page with a way to get it back to you.
If I reprint a label, does the code change?
No. Reprinting keeps the same code, so the old label and the new one both scan to the same item.
