Scanning priority system

The scanning system uses a priority-based approach where lower numbers indicate higher priority:

• Priority 125: Task-specific scanning

• Priority 150: Personalized/custom scanning (extensible by other modules)

• Priority 175: Storage bin/location scanning

• Priority 200: Product and document scanning

• Priority 225: Box/handle unit scanning

• Priority 9999: Fallback handler for unknown items

When you scan a barcode, the system processes it through each handler in priority order until one successfully handles the scan or all handlers have been tried.

Scanning log

It is possible to view the latest barcode scans by clicking the ‘Scan Log’ button in the top bar:

Customization

The scanning system supports customization through the Personalized Scan Handler, which allows other modules to extend scanning functionality with custom behaviors specific to their requirements.

The base behaviour for SSMS is a simple EAN128 parser that admit 01 and 30 application identifiers (AI). First one for product upc and second one for the product quantity. This means that a valid EAN128 code would be 0101234567890123302 where 01234567890123 would be the UPC, and 2 the quantity
