Enable Continuous Scan

Continuous Scan helps you scan a barcode in predefined order and populate the fields without tapping on the field.

For example, if there are separate barcodes for Purchasing Document Number, Plant Number and Material fields, you can configure the fields to capture the value when you scan the barcode. When doing goods receipt, you can scan the barcodes depending on the sequence in which the fields appear on the screen and populate the values.
  • If you configure only editable fields such as text fields or only scan fields on the screen, then each field is populated with the scanned (barcode) data as you scan the barcodes.
  • If you configure a combination of scan and text fields on the screen, the data is populated only in the scan fields as you scan the barcodes.

To use this feature, do the following configurations:
