Q&A
Merchant:
I bought a scale from you last year and I’m using your apps on Clover.
Here are our challenges:
We want all our products to move to weight only on the bar code since pricing in agriculture is going up.
Can we setup your app to recognize the old and new label and parse them correctly?
Our existing products have the last four digits, before the final check digit reserved for the price.
New products will have the last four digits reserved for the weight.
In the picture Pork Chops is New and Beef is old.
We use the scale we bought from you to also make a chicken label with price in the bar code. We have to work
with you to change that to the weight as well.
CSI Works Support:
We have 2 different apps one for Price embedded barcodes and one for weight embedded barcodes.
It would not be possible to utilize both apps at once. They are meant to work in absolute sort of way.
You can configure your scale to print weight embedded barcodes or price embedded barcode and use one or the
other app from us.
But you cannot have different scale configured to different barcode formats and be able to scan both on clover.
You would have to choose which format you want to use.
Merchant:
