4. Confirm scanning prefixes & suffixes with “|”

   With your cursor focused on any input outside of Rundoo (e.g. a document, Google search input, the URL bar of your browser, etc.), scan any barcode. Confirm the output is prefixed & suffixed with “|”. In other words, if the barcode number was 0123456789, we’d expect to see |0123456789|.

   If the output does not match, please rescan the QR code in the configuration doc above. If it’s still not working, check our FAQs for troubleshooting below. If it’s still not working call (650) 334-3205 for help troubleshooting.

5. Test it out with Rundoo!

   Go to your Rundoo POS & ensure barcode scanning works by scanning products into a sale. If things seem to be working, you’re all set! If not, call (650) 334-3205 for help troubleshooting.
