2D-Barcode-QR-Code-Scanning

2D Barcode Scanning

2D barcodes are being adopted very quickly in a wide range of industries for their compact size and data capacity. Generate 2D barcodes directly from Dynamics Business Central/NAV that include all information relevant to a scan, such as an item number, lot number, expiration date, UOM, or even quantity.

The smaller barcode size means it can be applied to smaller items, or made large enough to be scanned from a distance while still fitting on a small label. The number of distinct pieces of data stored in the barcode can reduce the number of scans required to execute an action.For example, a single scan could bring in an item number, lot number, and weight.

Here are few other functionalities:

  • Print and scan barcodes
  • Ship, receive, and count inventory
  • Print and scan barcodes
  • Ship, receive, and count inventory

License Plate Management

Easily track entire pallets, boxes, or containers of mixed items including mixed lot/serial numbers.

License Plate Management (License Plating) from MetaADCS provides users with the ability to track and generate labels to reference entire pallets, boxes, crates, or containers that contain mixed items or mixed lot/serial numbers.

The License Plates barcodes are easily printed directly from handheld devices and can be used for picking, receiving, movements, consumption, and shipping.

  • Overcome supply chain challenges, speed up warehouse/shop floor transactions, reduce errors and more.
  • Distinguish each product carton or item with a unique license plate number (LPN) in a warehouse setting.
  • Identify goods in transactions such as receiving, moving, production or shipping.
  • Reduce the number of scans necessary to enter a transaction.

Moving product through your warehouse requires abundance of scanning but through the magic of License Plating from MetaOption MetaADCS, you can move product through with less scanning while helping to address errors related to manual input and data integrity. Put simply, License Plating allows for efficient transactions which increase your overall warehouse operation efficiency.

Container Management

Containers are used throughout the inbound and outbound processes to consolidate orders. A unique identifier is assigned to each container and as orders are processed, data is captured and linked to that unique number. All information pertaining to the contents and movements of the order are captured and recorded. The results are accurate orders, to one or many orders which allows for accurate order preparation, error-proofing, and order tracking throughout the inbound and outbound processes.
