Basic Product Checks

Within Azumuta it is possible to add different kinds of product checks to a work instruction. Below, you’ll find an overview of the basic product checks that you can use in Azumuta.

The product checks that we consider as “basic” are the ones that we highlighted below.

Barcode Check

What happens on this check: In a barcode check, the operator is asked to scan a barcode (or alternatively, manually type in the barcode’s readable data string). Then, the values from the barcode will be saved as an answer in the product order work instruction report.

This is how this check appears on the operator view:

Barcode Options

Here are the possible configuration options that are exclusive for this product check:

1. Select the barcode type that will be used.
2. If you want the values extracted from the barcode to follow a specific format, then you can input the format here. Please consult No.6 to see the characters that you can use to create a specific format. For example, you want the values extracted from the barcode to consist of 5-digit numbers. Thus, in this field, you should write “#####” (since the hashtag symbol represents a number, as shown on No.6). If the values extracted from the barcode do not consist of 5-digit numbers, then the instruction step will signal that the extracted values are invalid, and the operator won’t be able to proceed to the next instruction step. This feature helps to prevent any unwanted deviation.
3. If this toggle is activated, then all spaces and newlines at the end of the values extracted from the barcode will be automatically deleted. This feature is useful to ensure data consistency across all product orders in your workspace.
4. If this toggle is activated, then you can add a requirement for the values extracted from the barcode. For example, if you choose to only accept values in the form of numbers on No.2, you can add the requirement that the numbers must be bigger than 3 but smaller than 8. Thus, only the numbers 4-7 are accepted on the product check, and other numbers will be deemed invalid. To use this feature, please contact us via our support@azumuta.com email.
5. If this toggle is activated, then the values extracted from your barcode can have multiple lines (rows). If this toggle is not activated, then only the first line of values from the barcode is extracted.
6. These are the characters that you can use to adjust the format in No.2.

Masked Input Check

What happens on this check: In a masked check, restrictions can be placed on the shape of the string entered by the operator. When going through this check, the operator must enter a value that meets the predefined restrictions in terms of form. This check is mainly used to prevent typing errors.

Note: Please note that when defining a masked input check, the entered value will always have to conform to this form. Therefore, it is recommended to use this check only when this form is always the same when an operator enters it.
