Encoded barcode suppport


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.


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.
