Configuring EKW Print functionality for Cloud EPICOR clients

  1. Create new or use existing EPICOR user/s with access to Companies and Sites for which the printing function is to be set up.

circle-info

Unless sites are at the same physical location there should be a different user set up for each Site in each Company for which EKW print functionality is to be available.

  1. In EPICOR Printer Maintenance, define printers for individual Sites for each Company.

circle-info

EKW will list all available printers so it is advisable that Site specific printer/s is prefixed with Site code followed by “~” in the Description.

  1. In EKW, go to Settings and General Settings, cloud customers will be able to specify EPICOR user name(set up in point 1) for currently logged in Site.

  2. To successfully print from EKW connected to cloud EPICOR server, an EPICOR session has to be established by logging in to the EPICOR client at the site to which EKW is logged in, with the username configured.

Barcode Templates

Introduction

circle-info

If you are scanning on a page that has a template specified, it will attempt to match the data scanned to the template. If the structure does not match, it will then ignore the template and treat the data as a normal scan (including checking whether the Dividing Character(s) are used within it). This can have unexpected effects if the template has the same character(s) as the Dividing Character(s) setting and the template match fails.

Template Types

Barcode Templates are a feature for EKW that allows users to specify customizable formats for barcodes in order to extract desired data. They can be used in two different ways which are either Fixed or Dynamic.

Barcode Template can be specified as one of three possible types: Fixed, Dynamic or GS1.

Fixed Templates

Fixed Templates used when a barcode structure will not change. The template must match the structure of the barcode from left to right.

Barcode

Template

Result

4234/553

fixed:${poNum}/${packSlip}

poNum = 4234 packSlip = 553

Dynamic Templates

Dynamic Templates may be used when a barcode has unique identifiers for each field and some kind of separator character that can be used to identify the end of a field. The template does not need to match the left-to-right structure of the barcode as long as the unique identifiers are set up correctly.

Barcode

Template

Result

#014234#02553#

dynamic:#01${poNum}#,#02${packSlip}#

poNum = 4234 packSlip = 553

GS1 Templates

GS1 templates are like dynamic ones but use GS1 standard AI codes as unique identifiers for each field instead of allowing user-defined separators, which contain standard definitions for the field. The template does not need to match the left-to-right structure of the barcode as long as the unique identifiers are set up correctly.

partNum = 93277820074997 qty = 0.195 kg bestBeforeDate = 220610

Template Structure

STRUCTURE: [type]:[template]

Type

Every template MUST begin with a type identifier. This will be the name of the type along with a colon.

Template

After the type, the template itself is specified. Templates are composed from three components: sections, field identifiers and separators.

Sections

Each section is made up of a combination or one or more field identifiers along with any separators that are required. Fixed templates can only ever have one section. Dynamic barcodes can have one or more sections, which are separated by commas. GS1 barcodes can also have multiple sections, however they do no have a separator.

A fixed section can have multiple field identifiers in the one section, whereas dynamic and GS1 sections can only have one field identifier per section.

Field Identifiers

Every field identifier is defined by a dollar sign and left squiggly bracket, follow by the program-defined field name, followed by a right squiggly bracket (i.e. “${fieldname}”). The dollar sign and left bracket are used to identify the start of the field identifier. The field name must match a pre-defined list of supported field identifiers (listed at the top of the page). This field name is what the relevant barcode section is mapped to.

circle-info

NOTE: Maximum length of fields is not supported in 3.2.7, however this feature should be coming in from version 3.3.#. Once this feature is included, it can be used by specifying the field name as ${fieldname:5} to specify a max length of five characters. If a suffix is found before the fifth character, the field mapping will be shorter. The maximum length value is optional and fields can still be specified without the ":5" in order to have no maximum length. If a barcode has a field that you don't want to be used, use the field identifier of “${IGNORE}” for it.

Separators

Any characters that are outside of these field identifiers are considered separators and are used to separate the fields. These characters can be of any length and can exist both before and after the first and last field identifier respectively. A separator can be considered both a suffix of one field identifier and a prefix of another.

Fixed Template

For fixed barcodes, the type is "fixed:". Note that the use of lowercase characters is required.

Fixed templates have a single section that must be defined in a left-to-right order. The template has strict matching requirements and the relevant barcode must match exactly.

The logic for parsing fixed templates is as follows:

  1. Once the type of barcode has been checked, the app will then look for any separator that exists before the first field (e.g. the “PREAMBLE-” in one of the example). This can be blank.

  2. Once the initial separator has been matched, it will then extract the field name from the field identifier (along with an optional max length in 3.3.0 onward).

  3. It then checks the template for any separator that exists after the field identifier. Once this is found, it then matches the initial separator (a.k.a the prefix separator) to the barcode, then reads any data from that point onward into the field until the next separator is found (the suffix separator).

  4. For the first example, it will check after the the type “fixed:” to find there is no prefix separator. It will then use field1 for the field name and the “-” as the suffix. When parsing the barcode itself, it starts from the start until it find the suffix separator to then map the value of 111 to field1.

  5. If no suffix separator exists, it will map from the current point to the end of the barcode (i.e. for the 333 part of the barcode).

  6. Once it has mapped a field identifier, it will then continue from that point for the next field identifier until all are mapped.

Examples:

Barcode

Template

Result

111-222-333

fixed:${field1}-${field2}-${field3}

field1 = 111 field2 = 222 field3 = 333

PREAMBLE-ab777$i999***

fixed:PREAMBLE-${poNum}$i${packSlip}***

poNum = ab777 packSlip = 999

ABC123456

ixed:${poNum}123${packSlip}

poNum = ABC packSlip = 456

TEST-4295/7474--123

fixed:TEST-${poNum}/${IGNORE}--${packSlip}

poNum = 4295 packSlip = 123

Dynamic Template

The primary difference between fixed and dynamic barcodes is that dynamic barcodes specify multiple small sections which can be used to map to any part of a barcode, instead of having to having to map to a 1-to-1, left-to-right relationship.

Each section must have a unique prefix separator (i.e. #01, #02, etc), followed by the field identifier and then a suffix separator. The suffix separator does not need to be unique, and may often contain a character that is also used as the prefix for other separators (i.e. another #).

Instead of parsing the barcode only once, dynamic templates will check the entire barcode scan for each section. The logic is as follows:

  1. The template is split into sections based on the comma.

  2. For each section, the app will search through the entire barcode value until it finds the prefix separator. It will then map the following data into the field name until it finds the suffix character.

  3. Instead of fixed barcodes, which would then continue from that point for the next field, the app will search from the start of the barcode again for the next section.

The example above would be used for a barcode that looks like this: #011234*#**025555#*. Note that the hash in bold is used both as the suffix to indicate the end of the first field and also part of the prefix for the unique identifier for the next section.

The suffix at the end of a section can be left blank if you know for certain that the field will always be the last one in a barcode. Since the suffix wouldn’t exist, the app would simply add everything from the where the prefix separator is up to the end of the barcode into the specified field.

dynamic:222${poNum}222,111${packSlip}111

poNum = 123 packSlip = 4295

GS1 Template

Much like dynamic templates, GS1 templates specify multiple small sections which can be used to map to any part of a barcode, instead of having to map to a 1-to-1, left-to-right relationship. However, unlikely dynamic templates, the prefixes in a GS1 template cannot be freely set to any value, but rather conform to a globally defined standard of GS1 Application Identifiers (AIs) that define meaning to and the format of the data that is being scanned.

GS1 Application Identifiers (AIs) are prefixes used to define meaning and format of data fields contained in the barcode. Each field defined in the template must have a unique prefix. Multiple prefixes can be defined as referring to the same input field. In this case, if multiple are present in the same barcode, the last instance of that input field that shows in the barcode is the value that will be used.

Some AIs are mapped to refer to specific units of measurment, e.g. 310n is associated with KG and 320n LB. Should the unit of measurement in the barcode not match the unit of measurement that EKW has associated with the part, an error will occur on the UOM field.

AI codes that may appear in the barcode but are not relevant and do not need be processed can be set to be ignored by EKW, by using the value {IGNORE} in place of a field identifier.

GS1 templates use AI codes as field identifiers effectively mapping bar code values prefixed with a given code to template fields,

Special Notes

Unique Suffixes

Defining unique suffixes in a dynamic template or a fixed template using the Template Configurator is not supported as of the 5.30.0 release. If you wish for your suffixes to not be identical, you must define your template via typing into the template input field, or change the suffixes generated in the Template Configurator via the input field.

  • defined using the Template Configurator: dynamic:222${poNum}~,111${packSlip}~

  • defined by manually defining the template: dynamic:222${poNum}222,111${packSlip}111, dynamic:222${poNum}222,111${packSlip}

Tabs

Support for using tabs within a template is available as of vwersion 3.3.# onward (same as support for maximum length fields). If you wish to use tabs within your barcode as separators between the fields, it will have to be represented in the template with "\TAB". Tabs that are added directly into the template will not work.

  • Incorrect: fixed:${poNum} ${packSlip}

  • Correct: fixed:${poNum}\TAB${packSlip}

Application Identifier Mappings

Data being scanned for an Application Identifier that maps to a date field must be in “YYMMDD” format i.e. 240918, If a format other then this is provided the AI will not be able to generate a date and the field will not be populated.

Data being scanned for an AI that maps to a numeric field must be a number, as the scan will fail if any non-numeric values are included.

Steps to Create Your Own Template:

For Fixed

Step

Example

1. Add "fixed:" to the start of the template

"fixed:"

2. Add any prefix before the first field if necessary

"fixed:" or "fixed:TEST-"

3. Add "${fieldname}" to the template

"fixed:${poNum}"

4. Add any suffix after the field if necessary

"fixed:${poNum}/"

5. Repeat as required:

a. Add another field name "${fieldname2}"

"fixed:${poNum}/${packSlip}"

b. Add another suffix after the field if necessary

For Dynamic

Step

Example

1. Add "dynamic:" to the start of the template

"dynamic:"

2. Repeat as required:

a. Add the unique identifier prefix before field name

"dynamic:#01"

b. Add "${fieldname}" to the template

"dynamic:#01${poNum}"

c. Add a suffix to identify the end of the field (can be ignored if the field will always be the last field in the barcode)

"dynamic:#01${poNum}#"

d. Add a comma (UNLESS this is the last section in the template, in which case do not add a comma)

"dynamic:#01${poNum}#,#02${packSlip}#"

For GS1

Step

Example

1. Add "GS1:" to the start of the template

"GS1:"

2. Repeat as required:

a. Add the chosen AI before the field

"GS1:01"

b. Add "${fieldname}" to the template

"GS1:01${partNum}"

Repeat until desired fields are included

"GS1:01${partNum}320n${qty}91${reference}"

Template Configurator

circle-exclamation

Manually typing out a template can be difficult on a small device screen and prone to errors as a result of typos. You can instead generate your template through selecting your required fields in the template configurator modal.

After selecting the template you wish to configure, users can click on the 'Configure Template' button. From there a modal opens which allows users to select both the template type they wish to configure and a list of fields available on the page that could be included, displayed in the form of toggles.

For all template types, the user is required to select two or more fields from the available list in order to proceed with template generation.

When selecting a template of type Fixed or Dynamic the 'Separator' input field becomes a required field in order to proceed. This Separator field serves the role of both the separator when a Fixed templated is selected, and a Suffix when the dynamic template is selected.

circle-exclamation

After selecting the template type, filling in the separator if needed and selecting the required fields. Users can click on 'Continue' at which point they will be brought to the next stage of template configuration. On this next screen, the prefix value can be added for dynamic and GS1 templates, and the order of the fields in the template can be rearranged if needed.

Before saving the newly configured template, users are able to test that they have correctly mapped the fields to their barcode inside the modal by using the button 'Test Template'

On this screen users will be able to view a sample of the template they have configured, and scan a barcode to confirm that it functions as expected.

Once you are happy with the template you have configured, you can close the test modal via the 'Back' button and click 'Save'. This will close the configurator modal and display your newly created template in the template input field.

Template types available for use are:

Fixed

Fixed templates are used when a barcode has a fixed structure which does not change. The defined template must match the structure of the barcode from left to right.

Dynamic

Dynamic templates may be used when a barcode has unique identifiers for each field and separator character that can be used to identify the end of a field. The template does not need to match the left-to-right structure of the barcode as long as the unique identifiers are set up correctly.

GS1

GS1 templates are like dynamic ones but use GS1 standard AI codes as unique identifiers for each field and field’s standard definitions to read values. The template does not need to match the left-to-right structure of the barcode as long as the unique identifiers are set up correctly.

For more information on defining a template of type Fixed, Dynamic or GS1, please see Template Structurearrow-up-right

Points to note regarding lot number creation using GS1 template. 1. If neither AI code 10 or 21 are found in the barcode and no potential attribute fields (11, 12, 13, 15) are found or no mapping to any LOTATTR field set to IGNORE in the template then DO NOTHING – if part is lot tracked and may or may not require attribute entry all entries need to be entered manually. 1. If neither AI code 10 or 21 are found in the barcode but any potential attribute fields (11, 12, 13, 15) is found NEXTLOT button press is simulated (lot number generated) Attribute Entry form opens with prefilled date value from the scan. 1. AI code 10 or 21 found but mapped and mapped to {mfgLot} which is lot attribute (date lot attributes may or may not be present) NEXTLOT button press is simulated (lot number generated) Attribute Entry form opens with prefilled date value from the scan. 1. AI code 10 or 21 found and mapped to {lotNum} (date lot attributes may or may not be present) Lot Number in Line tab is populated with the scanned/mapped value and lot created. Attribute Entry form opens depending on the Part Lot Attribute configuration

  • All attributes set to “Not Tracked”  - Attribute Entry Form will not open, irrespective of whether attribute dates present in the barcode or notAt least one attribute set as Tracked or Mandatory

  • Attribute Entry Form will open values that can be populated will be populated 5. Bar code with previously defined Lot Number is scanned Lot number is accepted – Attribute Entry form does not open. (i.e. equivalent to current behaviour when existing lot is entered/scanned or selected from the list)
