Barcode scanner interface to SAP

[sankaralingam_maharajan]

We have a requirement related to Asset Tracking. The field person would scan the barcode using scanner and the data shuould get updated in 3 different tables in SAP. The question is how will this work i.e. how will the scanner send data to SAP? Any 3rd party application is required?

Basically, you can create a web app to do the scan, like this

If considering native app, Kapsel and Cordova are your key words. That's front end.

In the back, you use things like ODATA, CDS View to communicate with the front and also do the table updating

This question is too general and vague. At a very high level overview, you can use SMP SDK to develop your mobile apps with desired functionalities, then expose your backend to SMP server via OData and that's how your mobile app can talk to your backend.
