Frequently asked questions


  • How does Warehouse Insight handle multiple barcode formats?

    While Warehouse Insight supports multiple barcode formats including 1D, 2D, and others, the use of different barcodes will be limited by the barcode formats supported by the scanner you are using. For example, laser scanners will scan 1D barcodes however imaging scanners will be needed for 2D barcodes. 

     Warehouse Insight provides configurable rules to decode any type of barcode and extract any required information, including item number, item cross reference, variant code,unit of measure, quantity, lot number, expiration date, serial number, and any other custom field. 

    So the basic approach of mapping a vendor’s barcode to your own item is natively enabled when using Warehouse Insight.
  • I already have UPC codes on my inventory. What needs to happen to move to Warehouse Insight scanning?

    Getting started with Warehouse Insight is simple. The primary task is cross-referencing item barcodes to your NAV item data. That’s it. There are several additional options that can be configured based on your process but none of them are required to get going.
  • How much information is a barcode able to obtain?

    Any NAV field can be extracted from a barcode. Multiple NAV fields can be populated with a single scan. Some of the data that can be extracted from a barcode include items, variants, lot information, expiration date, unit of measurement, quantity and more.
  • Can information from Business Central or NAV be displayed on handheld scanning devices?

    Specific information from Business Central or NAV can be delivered to devices, including “Decision Support” messages to help guide users in specific tasks. 

    The information displayed is based on the custom rules and business logic within Business Central or NAV. The information displayed on devices is configurable. While the header and footer information is standard, the content within the screen can be customized to show or hide columns and menus.
  • When working with multiple quantities of a single item, does the item need to be scanned multiple times?

    Warehouse Insight can be configured to adhere to the rules and processes you set out. You may force the user to scan every item or simply scan the item once and enter the quantity manually into the handheld. 

    This configuration can be done per activity – for example, you can prompt for quantities during receiving, but default to the line quantity while picking.
  • What brands of handheld scanners does Warehouse Insight support?

    Warehouse Insight supports most makes and models of scanners including Datalogic, Zebra, Honeywell, and others.
