We have a customization where we use a combobox to look up a list of usercodes, the field is populated by scanning a barcode.
When we scan the barcode it is autopopulating the field incorrectly, for example, Options are:
ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLY-01
ASSEMBLY-02
When scanning ASSEMBLY-01 or 02 it populates as ASSEMBLY.
I have tried amending the SysConfig file as below but neither of these have worked.
SelectTextOnEnter value=“True” (Tried both True & False)
ComboAutoCompleteMode value=“AutoCompleteOnly” options=“AutoCompleteOnly|DropDownList” (Tried both options)
I don’t have a solution for you as I’ve also struggled scanning into comboboxes.
What I’ve done, instead, is insert a textbox in place of the combobox, and then scan into that. If you’re scanning the value in, then having a dropdown box kinda defeats the purpose anyway.
We have thought about the text box, however, this leaves the field open for a user to type something in when we need to restrict it to a set list. The scanner was to help as the list is quite long.
