The best bet for situations like this one, regardless of the WMS used, is to avoid using the screen at all. The goal would be to get scanners with numeric or “functional”/F-numeric keypads so that users never have to touch the screen and have easy access to the functions they need. Warehouse Insight has standard “F-keys” (like F1, F2, etc.) for specific functions, but those can be configured per app as well – for example, F6 to print, F2 to post, etc.
Between barcode scanning and physical keys, users wearing gloves would never have to use the screen to open documents, change quantities, enter lot #’s, post documents, etc.

A good example of this type of scanner is a Honeywell CK65 or CK67 for cold storage, such as: https://tinyurl.com/bdeh776k or a similar non-cold storage version: https://tinyurl.com/2yvpysja
