Result recording through barcode scanning

[babarkhan_mujawar]

Hello Experts,

We want to record the results  through bar-code scanning like scanning of Employee Id bar-code. And it is capture in results recording screen for characteristic as employee id number.

Please guide me with the setting of control indicators and masters required to capture this requirement.

Thanks in advance

Hi Mujawar,

The Barcode reader works like typing the value where the cursor is positioned. So, If you position the cursor in result field while doing result recording, it will type the bar code value directly in to the field.

Now, if you have simple bar code. e.g. Bar code contain single value of employee ID. Then you don't have to do any processing. Just put your cursor in the result recording field and scan the bar code using the reader. It will put the value directly in the result field.

But, if you have complex bar code containing more then one information e.g. bar code with information of employee no and his name. in that case, the bar code reader will read the entire information which have to be processed before it can be used. In this case, you have to take help from the ABAP.

Ok, Thanks for replying..

I just want top know that to capture the reading i required MIC. So

How to create text field for Inspection Characteristic (MIC).

What should be used Quantative or Qualitative?

What are control indicator to be use which supports the any text field in result recording.

I believe you can have two choices here to use MIC -

a) Use qualitative MIC with catalogs, mapped with Employee ID.

b) Update the Barcode scan result as alfa-numeric value and update it in inspection description/Short text [PRUEFBEMKT] field. If this process is used, then MIC can be either qualitative or Quantitative, as short text field is independent of the MIC type.

Hi,

You don't need to do anything to create text field. The result field on Result recording screen against the characteristic will solve purpose.

You have to create Quantitative MIC with 0 decimals.

Keep the control indicators as per the attached screenshot.

Hi Mujawar,

I think you need to work with ABAP team to help you create a process to put the results for result recording. To understand a bit on technology/functions for barcode scanning, I found out one thread: https://scn.sap.com/thread/508524.  To know further, it will be great if you can put a thread at https://scn.sap.com/community/abap

Thanks,
