Bills of Lading Demonstration
Multiple linear bar codes may be replaced in a bill of lading/inventory application.
In this demonstration, an individual linear code would typically be used for each
part number, description, and quantity, as well as for customer and order number
information. If linear codes were used for the bill of lading shown below, the user
would have to scan 14 individual bar codes before moving on to the next
package.
By taking advantage of the enhanced data capacity of PDF417, the user is able
to encode all the required information in a single bar code label. Using the
Imager and a two-dimensional symbology, the user gets complete information in
a single scan.
Scan this bar code to display a sample screen for this bill of lading application.
