For more than 8 years, our app Barcode-Check has been ensuring secure and efficient business processes in compliance with global standards... After 2 years of development, we have reached the next level for data checking of your barcodes and labels with CodeCheckGS. The supported specifications has been expanded so that HIBC, IFA and ANSI can now also be used in addition to GS1. The new scan archive ensures that previous scans can be checked at any time for tracebility, the support of Cognex scanners for difficult barcodes and optional available watch apps makes the package complete. CodeCheckGS validates whether the information in the barcode corresponds to the requirements of the specification and supports you with further important information about the identifier. This is done for GS1 barcodes (GS1-128 and GS1-Datamatrix), HIBC primary and secondary codes, and IFA barcodes.
