Item Label

Expected Usage

The item label is typically used in the receiving scenario where an item can arrive without a label.
It will contain standard information from the item card in Business Central and new information entered directly on the device:

• Lot / serial number
• Expiration date
• Quantity

Barcode

• The data is also encoded in a GS1 DataMatrix (2D) barcode, so the mobile app can read all values in one single scan, speeding up receipt significantly.
• Alternatively, a simple linear barcode can be used.

Customization

• Some templates already have room for optional values (extrainfo). This gives the design some flexibility for the developer
• Additional values and design changes are easily made using the Cloud Designer

How is the barcode value determined?

Step 1: Determine the Item

• Printing from "Print" function (Main menu)
  • The item is determined using the regular "Item Reference" search in Mobile WMS
• Printing from "Print Label" action (Receive lines, Pick Linesetc.)
  • The current line context is used

Step 2:  Find the "Item Reference" barcode value

The "Item Reference" barcode is selected (the first one found) based on the Unit, Item and Item Variant

Step 3: Fallback if above 

1. "GTIN" on Item card
2. Item number itself
