QR Code scanning not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 8

Is anyone else having troubles with the camera function in iOS not working to scan using the barcode scanner option when the type is set to QR code?  I reset the barcode type to QR Code last week because it wasn't patching properly to sharepoint and it worked.  Now when I scan, it won't actually scan as it does if I leave the type as auto.  The other thought i had was to leave it as auto but then the patch function for that particular variable doesn't transmit.  The QR code is returning a "number" such as this B0007502. I have formatted the SP column as text.

 

My scan fx = ClearCollect(collectMultiScan, {QRCode: BarcodeScanner1.Text, WhoScanned: User(). FullName, WhenScanned: Now()})

 

I then have a gallery that portrays all of this info and the QR Code Value is portrayed in a text box I've renamed QR Code.  My patch function is basically this.....(took out the non important coding that i know works).

 

Patch('AED Results', Defaults('AED Results'),{'QR Code': QRCode.Text, Who: User().FullName, Date: Now()});

    Hi @amstyes ,

     

    try this:

    set the below formula for onScan property:

    ClearCollect(collectMultiScan, {QRCode: BarcodeScanner1.Value, WhoScanned: User(). FullName, WhenScanned: Now()})

    Then on submit button to add to SharePoint list do the below:

    ForAll(collectMultiScan,
    Patch('AED Results', Defaults('AED Results'),{Title: QRCode,Who: User().FullName, Date: Now()}))

    Okay so that didn't work but i think it's because I have a LOT more going on in these formulas.  I've created a word document with screen shots and all my formulas included.  I really appreciate any help that you can provide.  I'm a fairly new user but had this working great last week and then it just stopped.
