## Database Tables Involved

### boxes_crates
Stores warehouse box information
```sql
SELECT id, box_number, location_id FROM boxes_crates 
WHERE box_number = 'BOX-001';
```

### box_contents
Stores CP codes assigned to boxes
```sql
SELECT box_id, cp_code, quantity, added_at FROM box_contents 
WHERE cp_code = 'CP-123456789AB';
```

### scanfg_orders
Main scans table, gets updated with box assignment
```sql
UPDATE scanfg_orders 
SET box_id = ?, location_id = ?
WHERE cp_code = 'CP-123456789AB';
```

### cp_location_history
Audit trail for CP movements
```sql
INSERT INTO cp_location_history 
(cp_code, box_id, from_location_id, to_location_id, moved_by, reason)
VALUES ('CP-123456789AB', ?, NULL, ?, user_id, 'Assigned to box');
```

## Keyboard Shortcuts

| Key | Action |
|-----|--------|
| Tab | Move to next form field |
| Shift+Tab | Move to previous form field |
| Enter | Submit (when focused on Assign button) |
| Esc | Close modal (if implemented) |

## Barcode Scanner Integration

### How It Works
1. Box number field auto-focuses when modal opens
2. Barcode scanner sends scan data directly to input
3. No special handling needed - just scan!

### Scanner Configuration
- Append carriage return or tab (standard setting)
- No special formatting needed
- Box number should match format in database

### Example Scan Sequence
```
Scanner reads barcode → Data sent to boxNumber input
↓
Field populated with: BOX-NNNNNN
↓
Ready for user to click "Assign" or continue scanning
```

**No horizontal scrolling:** ✅ All devices
