Learn how to securely access a Katana Shop Floor Operator account using a QR code and a unique 6-digit login code. This ensures operators can only access their assigned tasks and helps streamline production operations.


What you’ll need

Before logging in, ensure the operator account has already been set up in Katana. To log in, you’ll need:

  • The QR code for the operator account

  • The operator’s 6-digit login code

These were created when the operator account was added and can be found by an admin in the Team settings.


How to log in

You can log in from any browser-supported device, but we recommend a mobile device for the best experience.

Step 1: Open the Login Page

Step 2: Click Scan QR Code

Once both the QR code and login code are validated, you’ll be directed to the operator’s task list in the Shop Floor Control App.


Tip: Reuse the QR code

Consider printing or saving the QR code for easy reuse at the workstation. This is helpful for shared devices.
