Searching by Barcode

Search for a box or file by entering its barcode. When you use this method, the specific record for which you are looking displays.

To search by barcode:

1. Select Search Boxes/Files from the Retrieval menu on the Versatile Web main menu.

2. Select the Barcode Only tab.

3. Select either Boxes or Files from the drop-down list.

4. Enter the barcode value for which you want to search in the Barcode ID field. You can enter “1”, “00000001” or “$00000001.” Versatile automatically reformats the value into a standard Versatile barcode before performing the search.

5. Click Lookup. When the software finds the barcode you entered, either the Box Description page or the File Description page displays, depending on the type of item. Up to 4,000 characters of the description display.

6. Request the item for checkout by clicking the green plus sign to the right of the Cart Status field at the bottom of the page. If there is no plus sign, then the box/file is not available for checkout.
