How to use current logic in Logiks barcode scanner?

First configuration should be added in specific scenario settings where you want to use logic

Following scenarios supporting Auto generation of Serial/batch number:

Goods Receipt PO
Stock Goods receipt

Inside of those scenario settings you can find option “Serial/Batch job list

and in dropdown menu you will see all configured logiks for Auto generating serial/Batch numbers

Important is that logic should be configured for same Data Gateway and Database what are provided in template backend settings Template Configuration

After logic is attached to the scenario, all devices what are attached to current template Use a Template will have possibility to use previously configured logic for Serial and Batch number generating https://logiks.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/LKB/pages/edit-v2/54559212?draftShareId=1236b24c-d9ae-4721-a723-a68adbdb79fa&inEditorTemplatesPanel=open
