Overview

Some companies use complex meaningful barcodes/tags to track their assets. TrackAbout provides support for validating numeric barcode/tag ranges for barcodes in relation to the kind of assets they're associated with (i.e. individual assets, bundles, containers).


How it works

Ranged Barcode Rules define the numbers can be used for barcodes for each country code, issuer code, and asset class (cylinder, container, or pack/bundle) combination.

For example, given country code 100, issuer code 301, a start of 00002000, and an end of 00005000 that apply to containers, valid barcodes would include 10030100002000 - 10030100005000.

Cylinder rules may include an optional asset family restriction, which helps users recognize the type of cylinder by barcode alone. This restriction is only enforced when adding a new cylinder or replacing a barcode.
