Hi,
By scanning a GS1 barcode it's possible to capture several information in one single scan. The information is devided by application identifiers, so the information can easily be allocated.The idea is to scan the Barcode or QR-code in one single scan and all fields are filled up with the corresponding information.
Important AI are:
- (01) Global Trade Item Number
- (240) Additional product identification assigned by the manufacturer
- (10) Batch or lot number
- (17) Expiration date
- (21) Serial number
- (30) Variable count of items
GS1 Application Identifiers:
https://www.gs1.org/docs/barcodes/GS1_General_Specifications.pdf
There should be the possibility to define, which AI should be processed in the warehousing app. For example the information of quantity shouldn't be used even if the information is provided on the code. Use case: Just scan one logistics unit to get Item number but the quantity is from purchase order.
By the way, there also should be a way to generate GS1 codes to print labels.
Regards,
Ronny

Consider the number of scans in a warehouse for RAF in production, for Purchase Order Registration on a receiving dock, and raw material picking. We would throw a parade if the warehouse mobile app supported DataMatrix and QR codes for a single scan solution that eliminates errors of scanning QTY for the LP number or Item Number for the QTY. It's not all about GS1. Having the ability to create a 2D barcode of our choosing and defining the mandatory data elements needed within the 2D barcode is more important than ever. Let's provide the warehouse user a way to improve productivity and accuracy.

It's a shame to see what should be standard functionality in any best-of-breed WMS, still missing. The same functionality we had to customize several years ago is still not gaining traction. Vote this up!

Is there any progress on this topic?
In health care in Europe the use of GS data matrix is now mandatory.
An out-of-the box support would be greatly appreciated.

Dear
Is this already on the roadmap?
This is realy important and is frequently used.
In almost every project this is a requirement.
In 2020 it even becomes a mandatory use in healthcare.
