Agenda

In this video, we will modify the design of a label-template using the designer and we will also be adding our own, custom data, using AL code.

Note: This video builds upon lessons learned in the previous video "Modify Label-template", so please watch that one first.

Objectives

Our customer wants to change the design of the default Item Label 4" x 3", to better suit their needs.

They have three requests:

1. Hide the fields: Serial No. and Expiration date. These are not in use by the customers
2. Using the space gained, to increase the size of the barcode, making it easier to scan it from a distance
3. Add custom data fields "Variant" and "Weight", using the already predefined "ExtraInfo"-fields, which are present for exactly this purpose

Using the examples on "Docs" 

Using the examples on "Docs", we can get an idea of how the changes can be made and produce a visual mock-up, if we like.

Print the label

Always start by printing the label as it is. This is so we can accurately track and verify changes, as we make them.
