THAR
QR-CODE INSTRUCTIONS

Always the right instruction, exactly where it is needed

An employee is standing at a machine, a driver arrives at a loading location or an external technician performs maintenance. At that moment, you do not want to search for the right instruction.

With THAR's QR-code instructions, everyone can access the latest work instruction, video, manual or e-learning course within seconds, simply by scanning a QR code.

How QR-code instructions work

  1. 01

    Create or select content

    Develop a work instruction, video, handbook or e-learning course in THAR.

  2. 02

    Link a QR code

    Connect the content to a QR code.

  3. 03

    Place it where it is needed

    Place the QR code on the relevant machine, workstation, product, vehicle or location.

  4. 04

    Scan and view

    The user scans the QR code and accesses the relevant information.

Create and manage QR codes from THAR

THAR provides a centralized QR code administration dashboard. Generate batches of tracking links, link them instantly to operating procedures, monitor scan events, and update content linkages on the fly without changing physical labels.

  • Real-time scan counter and analytics

    Track scans as they happen and keep a clear history of engagement across your fleet.

  • Batch download vector assets for print

    Export high‑quality vector QR codes ready for labels, signage, and production runs.

  • Broken link safety auto-rerouting

    Automatically redirect scans to a safe fallback when a linked procedure is removed or updated.

Information should be available exactly when you need it

Work instructions often disappear into binders, shared folders or separate PDFs. Employees then work from memory, ask colleagues for help or use outdated information. This takes time and increases the risk of errors. With THAR, you place knowledge exactly where it is needed: on a machine, vehicle, workstation, product or location.

No more managing separate instructions

Publish once. Create or update an instruction once. Linked QR codes display the latest version. No need to replace QR codes. When a process changes, update the content while the QR code at the workplace remains the same. Always up to date. Employees access the latest version instead of outdated documents. Everything managed centrally. Manage QR codes, work instructions, videos and documents from THAR.

Also suitable for external users

Not everyone who needs an instruction has an account in your learning environment. That is why you decide who can view which information.

External audiences

QR-code instructions are useful beyond internal employees. Share the right information with the right people at the right moment.

  • Temporary workers

    New temporary employees can open the right instructions immediately without first creating a full account.

  • Drivers and suppliers

    Share loading and unloading procedures, safety rules and location information before they start work.

  • External technicians

    Give maintenance companies direct access to machine instructions and maintenance procedures.

  • Visitors

    Let visitors review safety instructions or site rules before entering the premises.

  • Customers

    Give customers easy access to product information, manuals or user instructions via a QR code.

Public vs restricted access

Some QR codes can be publicly accessible, while others can remain restricted to logged-in users.

Public access

Useful for visitors, customers and external partners who only need to view approved information.

Restricted access

Keep internal procedures, safety protocols and confidential content visible only to logged-in users.

More than simply viewing information

QR-code instructions can do much more than open a document.
