Custom On-Device Validation

With our ‘Custom On-Device Validation’ (COV) feature, you can write your own JavaScript to validate based on the barcode scanned, the response text and the app user’s answers to in-app prompts. The service type must be a Record On-Device or Validate On-Device service type with manual upload to our server or auto-sync to our server (or yours).

Here are simple Custom Offline Validation guidelines.

The lead clients for this feature have built some interesting applications. Here are a few.

• Decryption of encrypted barcode data where the decrypted result is shown to the app-user in the response and becomes part of the scan record.
• Custom A/B Compare where the app-user is alerted when two barcodes scanned consecutively match or don’t match. The difference when using the COV tool instead of the online A/B Compare tool is the scanning can be done offline and you can customize the matching criteria.
• Validate an answer to a pre-submit question against the response text in the associated database. Sample script here – let support@codeREADr.com know if you have any questions.
• Validation statuses over-written when certain criteria are met. For example, a normally valid scan can be changed to invalid based on:
  • the answer an app-user submits to a prompt (a “Question”);
  • when certain text is detected within the scanned value;
  • when certain structured text is detected within the standard response for the scanned value.

Please contact support@codeREADr.com with your specific requirement. For some applications, we will quote writing the script for you.
