Introduction

Scan any

...

popular code

...

format using a device camera to

...

search for the corresponding object in the system database.

...

The identified object will be

...

displayed on the screen

...

, allowing you to quickly preview and edit it, or locate it within the complete structure.

The system supports most QR codes and barcodes

...

(refer to the Supported Formats section below for a full list).

...

You don't need specific QR codes

...

; you can reuse

...

existing ones as long as the code property (

...

such as a number, text, or GUID)

...

from the code is stored

...

in one of the metadata fields of the object.

...

The system can

...

search any metadata field to match the object.

Configuration

...

No special configuration is required.

...

The scanner will read the text property from the code (

...

which can be any text, GUID, or numeric code) and

...

attempt to search for that code

...

based on the current Quick Search configuration. Therefore, the value present in the code should be stored as a metadata property on the object.

...

Please note

...

that if the code is not unique,

...

meaning multiple objects are matched, only the first match will be shown.
