Same issue on my side (mobile app v 15.4)

 

Scanning works ok, but no filtering. EAN barcode, 128 barcode, EAN13. Nothing works.

      I have a problem with scanning barcodes,, (with Iphone)

      Is there no way to scan a barcode, not QR code??

      Hi Maya,

       

      thanks for your reply.

       

      I checked the filtering and these are persistant filters.

      So, when I scan the report opens (with the persistent filter).

       

      This behavior means that the retail scenario is not supported anymore since there you can show data on the report for one specific item that you identified by scanning the barcode.

       

      In your scenario you predefine the filter as I understand. So no dynamic filters are possible.

       

      Is that correct?
