Retrieval of scanned data is done using either a form on the TL client or using the TransLution Touch screen.

 

Using TL Client to Retrieve Batch Scanning

The TL client form is access from the Warehouse Management menu option:

Menu for Retrieving Data from a Batch Scanner

 

 

The retrieval form is shown below. The user uses the file to process option to browse for the file they want to receive (the file has to be in the folder defined in the TransLution Settings for Batch Scanning.

Once the file has been selected, the user clicks on Receive and this imports the file into the table defined for that function area.

 

If there are any rows that could not be processed, the user would see an Error in the response column. They could then select which rows to reprocess if required.

Using Touch Screen to Retrieve Batch Data

A new function area has to be created. It can have any name but it needs to be a touch screen overlay as shown below.

Function Area to Retrieve Batch Data

 

The user needs to ensure that there is a Panel Name called Batch Scanner Receive as per the form above.

If there is not, the following line has to be run against the database. This data will exist for new implementations but will not be in place for implementations upgraded from earlier versions to TransLution V3.22

INSERT INTO TOUCH_SCREEN_PANEL_NAME VALUES ('BATCH SCANNER RECEIVE', 1, 1, 'C', GETDATE())

 

All that then remains is to give the appropriate user group access to this function area. When this function area is selected on the Touch Screen a form below which is a very much like the standard client form, will be shown
