Using Iphone or Android built in camera as QR / Barcode scanner in Business Central

Using Iphone or Android built in camera as QR / Barcode scanner in Business Central
Here’s an example of how to use your phone scanner as barcode scanner within Business Central default mobile application. This uses https://github.com/mebjas/html5-qrcode library to achieve this. Code example can be found from https://github.com/nocubicles/bc-barcode-scanner This is not perfect yet as I didn’t find a way to remember the user access grant for example. But its a start and usable already. The example I made will add a button to Purchase Order which opens the scanner and then you can scan a barcode.
