Request: Add Hotkey for "Scan" Tab

Hello,

It doesn't appear that the "scan" tab has a hotkey built within Shipstation. So, our current workflow is to usually have two browser tabs of Shipstation open so that we can scan the packing slip in the "scan" field and "scan to verify" the order. Once that's done, we hop into another browser tab to get into the order and buy the shipping. 

The Scan to Verify and Ship isn't used as there is not a rate calculator. 

Adding in a hotkey for the scan field would be fantastic so we don't have to switch between two different browser tabs. 

Is there an easier workflow that I'm missing for "scan to verify"?

Thanks!

We handle all of the rate shopping via automation rules based on the size and weight of the items being shipped. By the time we make it to scan, we are 99% confident on the service and package needed and that is preselected. We have a barcoded set of presets that we are able to use if we need to quickly switch between 2 box sizes. Then we just scan the purchase and print barcode and the label prints. If anything I would love to have the purchase and print option built into the barcode on the packing slip!
