Action button to open barcode scanner

Hi,
I have created a dashboard view to record Airway bill numbers of orders by scanning the AWB barcodes. 
The Dashboard view includes two views "Filter" and "Order_ID".

The filter table has two buttons "Today" and "Other". So, the Today switch filters today's order for which I need to scan AWB numbers.

The next step involves recording AWB numbers by clicking on the order IDs filtered by the "Filter table". Post-clicking on the order ID, I'm redirected to the form view where I can click on the barcode scanning field to scan the AWB barcode. 

I want the app to directly open the camera/barcode scanner post-clicking on the order ID instead of redirecting me to the form view. Could anyone suggest a workaround for this?

Also, refer to the screenshot of the app to get more clarity.

Please note that I have "Advance Form Automatically" enabled but this doesn't solve the problem as it is meant to redirect the user to the next form/step but not to perform actions like opening the barcode scanner.
