GS1 is the recommended barcode
We highly recommend using the common GS1-128 (DataMatrix), as it can hold a number of different informations.
- can contain Lot number, Serial number, Expiration Date etc.
- can be used for login
Example of GS1-128 barcode
GS1-128 holds different kinds of information by assigning Application Identifiers (AI's).
The example contains four values.
- Item no. (AI 01)
- Expiration Date. (AI 17)
- Lot no. (AI 10)
- Quantity (AI 30)
Default AI support
Mobile WMS will accepts these AI's as standard.

How values from encoded barcodes are automatically transferred to input fields
Verify a barcode
Use the built-in function Scan Info to inspect a barcode.
Handling non-standard barcodes
Mobile WMS can to some extent, be configured to read a custom barcode format, by converting it into GS1.
- Each identifiable "block" is converted to an GS1 AI's.
