  • Barcode Scanner Control for Phones and Tablets

    It would be great to have a native control in BC (e.g. a special field type for Tablet-Client and Phone-Client) for scanning barcodes by using the camera of the device. The picture of the barcode should be interpreted within BC and the barcode value should be inserted into the field from where the process has been started. Additionally, it should be possible to start the barcode scanning process with AL-code. In this case, the barcode value should be passed over as a return value and we would be able to split the string into several elements (e.g. GS1 DataMatrix with multiple Information in one barcode). Finally there should be a possibility to give feedback to the user (sound or light) , whether the barcode could be interpreted correctly or not.
