Hi there,
 
I would like to know if's possible to search for the group separator in a rule? I know it's possible in an action but I would like to trigger it a level higher in the string section?
So instead for searching the string "21" as presented in the screenshot I would like to seach for "240"
Currently I'm running version 3.2 build 8.0
All suggestions are welcome.
 
Regards,
Ronald.

Hi Ronald,

The "String" field in 123Scan2 will only allow you to enter printable characters.  The is a non-printable character.  Your actions are as good as entering the in the string field though.  In your mockup you are using a Move to Pattern 240 action.  This rule will only work for barcodes that contain a 240 so while you are not entering the GS in the string field you are accomplishing the same task.  The only problem would be if you needed to look for a in a specific location.  Even then I believe we could use the actions of the rule to eliminate barcodes that do not fit your criteria.  If you have any questions please let me know.

Best Regards,
Janine
