Each beep you hear indicates that the item has been saved again in your scanner. You will not be able to see the number of times you have scanned an item until you actually upload your order. However, if you know you have accidentally scanned an item too many times, you can use the -1, -2, etc. codes on your scan sheet to remove items.
