Barcode Definitions
In the My-Scan Attendant, several barcode definitions can be configured. These barcode definitions allow the My-Scan Attendant to trigger certain behaviour, as a result of scanning a certain barcode. Barcode definitions have existed for a long time in the My-Scan solution, and more information on them can be found on the following page: Barcode definitions.
Parameter Name | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
EndOfTicketBarcodeDefinition | String | Defines the barcode mask for the end-of-trip barcode. Scanning this barcode indicates the end of a shopping trip, and is used to finalize the full rescan in the My-Scan Attendant. | null |
HostessBarcodeDefinition AttendantCardBarcodeDefinition | String | Defines the barcode mask for the attendant card. Certain features in the My-Scan Attendant can be triggered using an attendant card, and in the non-anonymous mode, scanning the attendant card is obliged to start a session. Alternatively, the parameter name AssistantCardBarcodeDefinition can be used. Both have the same behaviour. | null |
StartRescanBarcodeDefinition | String | Defines the barcode mask for a barcode that is used to start the rescan. This barcode is scanned from the customer device, where it is visible on the rescan screen. | null |
