Vantage - Problems Scanning Job Traveller Barcodes

Don't know if you've solved your problem, but you have one difference
between your formula and mine. I put "trim" in the formula. Here is a
formula I use to read job, asy, and op all at one time.

"*"+Trim({JobAsmbl.JobNum})+"$M"+trim(totext({JobAsmbl.AssemblySeq},0))+"$M"
+trim(totext({JobOper.OprSeq},0))+"$M"+"*"

It works in Vantage, except sometimes I get a CR at the end, and sometimes I
don't - haven't figured that out yet.

Subject: [Vantage] Vantage - Problems Scanning Job Traveller Barcodes


Hi All,

I feel like I am taking advantage of you all lately as I keep asking
questions but have nothing valuable to give! :-)

I have this problem when scanning barcodes from our Job traveller.

I have no idea why.

Basically, I have created barcode formulasthat look like "*" &
ToText({JobOper.OprSeq},0) & "$I*" for the operations.

On the example job traveller I have, if I scan any operation seq apart from
10, they scan perfectly, but for some reason the barcode for 10 scans as 100
ONLY IN VANTAGE.

If I scan it into word, it scans the correct value of 10.

The only thing that I can think of is we have Operation sequence 10, 20, 30,
40, 50 - all the way to 150. I am wondering if because it has seen 10 from
the barcode it is associating itself with seq 100.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Cheers,


CHRIS THOMPSON
