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
- "GTIN" on Item card
- Item number itself
What and when is the user asked when printing?
These steps are collected, based on their conditions. This can be customized.
Serial No.
- Displayed and in barcode
- Condition: Item Tracking Code: SN Specific Tracking is TRUE
Lot No
- Displayed and in barcode
- Condition: Item Tracking Code: Lot Specific Tracking is TRUE
Expiration Date
- Displayed and in barcode
- Condition: Item Tracking Code: Man. Expir. Date Entry Reqd. is TRUE
Unit of Measure Code
- Displayed
- Condition: The Item has multiple Units and is not Serial tracked
Variant Code
- Displayed
- Condition: The Item has multiple Variant and the variant is not given. I.e. by an Order Line.
Quantity per Label
- The number of item pieces contained in this logistic unit and represented by this label
- Condition: Always except when item is Serial tracked
Printer selection
- The printer to use
- Condition: Always
Number of labels
- Number of labels to print
- Condition: Always
