Barcode Scanner to Only Scan IF

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by XDUKERMANX

Hi,

I'm building an asset management power app where the data is stored in a sharepoint list.

Everything is working quite well thanks to advise that has already been given by you fine folks here.

I'm currently in the process of optimising some of the features. Specifically the Barcode Scanner.

I scan 2 barcodes one is called 'Asset ID' and the other is the 'Service Tag' (Serial Number of the Device) Luckily they are 2 different Barcode types so I have set each scanner input to only scan that barcode type.

The issue is that the Service Tag barcode is right next to another barcode on the device which is the same type of barcode as Service Tag.

Is there a way to setup it up to only scan if the barcode is = 15 characters as the barcode I keep scanning by mistake is 12.

Very specific request I know.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @XDUKERMANX ,

You did not state what you were doing after the scan, but you simply need to test the Length of the scanned value

If( Len(BarCodeScannerName.Value) = 15, DoWhatever )
