Good morning,
 
could you help me please how can I set up my device to skip (ignore) first character? I have following barcode: P225459, I need to scan only 225459, so without "P". I tried to find this setting in DataWedge  v3.7 but unfortunately without succes. There is only prefix, sufix...
 
Is here someone who can help me?
 
Thank you in advance?
David

Thanks for this. Do you know if there is a way to have the Devices skip the first character on some labels, but read the entire label on others. For instance, all my new labels have TRF on them, but my system on recognize the RF so I programed the handhelf scanner to skip the first character.

Well my legacy labels start with C and I need the C to show up so I can't skip the first character on these labels. Is there a way to allow my legacy labels to go through, while omitting the T on my new labels.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Advanced Configuration
Profiles
Select Profile0 or whatever profile you are using.
Routes
Route0
Process
Advanced Data Format
Make sure enabled is checked, then Rules
Rule0
Actions
Add new
Skip Ahead

You will then see 2 rules, Send Remaining and Skip ahead.  You want the Skip Ahead to be first,  so select skip ahead
Make sure "How Many" is set to 1, then select "Move", then "Up"
You should now see 2 rules , Skip Ahead and Send Remaining.

That should do it.  Keep hitting Zero until you are all the way backed out and DW saves the config.
