Manipulate Scanned Data on Agentry App

May 10, 2017 at 05:32 PM | 150 Views | Last edit May 10, 2017 at 06:03 PM 2 rev.

Hi guys,

I just want to know if is possible manipulate scanned (barcode) data on agentry's app (SAP Inventory Manager) and how?. The issue is we have to read a barcode label for which only the first ten (10) digits are relevant to filter through a column and execute an action if a single match occurs on a list screen. I just want to split the barcode and take the first ten (10) digits and dismiss the rest... If this is possible, I would appreciate a detailed answer and if is not, also answer me to start to look out another solution.

Best Regards,

M

    So there are a couple of ways you can approach this.

    1) You have the ability via OpenScan to write your own scanner interface where you can then post process the value before handing it off to Agentry as a scan value to trigger the default built in Agentry actions.

    2) You can create a No Match action in Agentry to take the value and perform your post processing. This would then require you to have your action handle the match of the list and trigger the appropriate equivalent of a scan match action based on the post processed value.

      You simply need to use the no match action to first parse out the value you care about and then open the detail screen targeting the correct record based on the matching value (I am assuming this value is unique across the collection).
