Is it possible to use a barcode that is already on a product and scan it to use in square? This would be much easier than what I do currently, adding each item in my store and creating a new barcode. There has to be an easier way.

@BlueTruckBou Absolutely! When you create the item just scan the barcode with your barcode scanner and BAM..it will put the number in the SKU field for you. Or you can enter it manually, just more tedious. The only thing you will still have to do is create the new item the first time and put in the name/photo/price/tax etc. But you won't have to make new barcodes and put on the items.

yes you need to click the Square in the Search area on the Checkout Tab to enable your camera. Then use the circle to switch cameras (Front/Rear facing). Normal 1D barcodes can be read and so can QR codes. I did a video 9 seconds or so long on me using my Ipad to do this but should be the same on an Iphone.

Do you have a scanner?
What Device are you using to try to scan the Item?
Did you go to settings in your Square App to add your Scanner?
here is how you can scan with an Iphone or Ipad, now this is on an Ipad in a Square stand but using the Camera built into the Ipad. Now this is a QR code but works the same with a regular products Barcode.
Very short video I did 9 seconds long:
