Barcodes stencil
The Barcodes stencil is used to scan documents for barcodes and map barcode values to data fields. The stencil will read the following barcode formats:
-
1D
-
DataMatrix
-
PDF417
-
QR
Available connections
There are two outgoing connections from a Barcodes stencil: green if barcode reading was successful and red if barcode reading failed.
Configuration
- To access stencil properties, double-click a Barcodes stencil. Or, right-click a Barcodes stencil and select Properties.
- In the Display Name box, enter a name that will be displayed for the workflow step.
- From the Data Field drop-down list, select the data field that you want to map the barcode value to.
- In the Regex box, enter the regex pattern to match against the barcode value. See Regex examples.
-
From the Multiple Handle drop-down list, select an option to determine what to do if the pattern match finds more than one barcode that matches. The following options are available:
-
First: If more than one match is found, use the first barcode.
-
Last: If more than one match is found, use the last barcode.
-
None: If more than one match is found, do not use either barcode.
Tip: Barcodes are read left to right and top to bottom, so the first is the closest to the top/left and last is the closest to the bottom/right.
