Barcode Printer Command Template Placeholders The document applies to GoDEX printers and to Zebra printers. Placeholders allow label formats saved as Command Templates in System Defaults to be reused for printing multiple labels with the data changed in each. Before printing a label format, each of its placeholders is replaced with data from the document or form where the print job originates. The available placeholders and the data they correspond to are listed in the Valid Placeholders section, in the table that applies to the Command Template's Label Type (e.g. "Inventory"). Alternative placeholders that reference the same data may be included in the "Alternative Placeholders" column. GoDEX Printer placehodlers The GoDEX/EZPL commands that support placeholder substitution are listed in the table  Printer commands checked for Placeholders . A placeholder is not considered valid unless it occupies the entire data field parameter and contains no whitespace except for trailing spaces. Because of how placeholder substitution currently works, each command must be placed on its own line in the template. If placeholder text appears inside a command that does not support placeholder substitution (i.e. not  At , Bt  or Wx ), it remains unchanged as part of that command. If the data for a valid placeholder is missing, then the command containing that placeholder is removed from the printed label. If the command’s field data parameter is not listed in the relevant table, it is treated as ordinary barcode or label data and left unchanged.  GoDEX Printer commands checked for Placeholders Description Syntax Notes Printer Text At,x,y,x_mul,y_mul,gap,rotationInverse,data Unformatted text 1D Barcode Bt,x,y,narrow,wide,height,rotation,readable,data Includes Code39 and Code128 QR Code Wx,y,mode,type,ec,mask,mul,len,roataedata len must be the length of the placeholder. Data starts at new line Zebra Printer placeholders The placeholders for Zebra printers are the same as those used by GoDEX, which are listed in the Valid Placeholders section, except  that they are enclosed in double square brackets. For example [[BAR1]] , [[%QCODE%]] and [[%QTY%]] are equivalent to the GoDEX/EZPL placeholders BAR1 , %QCODE% and %QTY% . Unlike with GoDEX placeholders there are no restrictions where they can occur in the label format. Any text matching a placeholder should be replaced by the value the placeholder references, or is otherwise removed. Not all placeholders which are supported for GoDEX/EZPL printing are supported for Zebra/ZPL printing. Placeholders which are not supported are documented with "Zebra unavailable" in the Notes column of the tables in the Valid Placeholder section, or if this applies to all the rows of a table, in a note above that table. Currently this only includes Accessory Grid placeholders. Valid Placeholders Zebra/ZPL placeholders are the same except they are enclosed in double square brackets. Not all placeholders are available for Zebra printers.

Accessories Grid size and layout Sizing and layout can be determined by a sequence of table graphic commands directly following the command containing the placeholder. The size of the font in the table will be the size of the placeholder font. See the section  Accessory Grid Printing for more details about Accessory Grid Printing. 2. Accessories Grid column placeholders Placeholders for column values of the Accessories grid can be set in the template instead of setting ACCESORIES_GRID . The N is replaced with a number referencing the row in the grid, for instance ACC_CODE_01 references the Code value in first row. 3. Assets barcode placeholder For barcode printing in the Assets Module the by default the placeholder BAR1 references the Asset Number of the item and the placeholder BAR2 references its Barcode. However, if the Print Barcode button in the General Tab of the Asset Details form is clicked, the values are interchanged, with BAR2 referencing the Asset Number. Printing from Main Tab in Asset Details Form Printing from General Tab in in Asset Details Form 4. Print WHS Label option The placeholders  %PRNWHSCODE% and %PRNWHSNAME% will have no effect unless the Inventory Item has the option "Print WHS Label" enabled in its setup form and there is at least one Warehouse with the option "Print On Label" enabled in its setup form, as shown. Location of "Print WHS Label" option in Inventory Setup form Location of "Print on Label" option in Warehouse Setup form With both options enabled, the placeholders are substituted with values from the Warehouses, with additional labels being printed if there is more than one Warehouse with the "Print On Label" option enabled. Lab Samples Markers Accessory Grid Printing To include a table with accessory data for an inventory item a placeholder that begins ACCESORIES_GRID is used or one of the alternate placeholders for it. Alternatively individual values can be referenced with the  ACC_CODE_0N , ACC_DESCR_0N , ACC_QTY_0N , and ACC_REF_0N placeholders, where N is replaced with the row number of the table. There is currently one type of accessories table available. The data for the grid is found in the Inventory Setup window for an item, in the Manage Accessories form which is opened through the Functions menu.  For the label commands of the table data to be generated successfully it is important that the table drawing commands in the template appear immediately after the ACCESSORIES_GRID1 placeholder label command.  The spacing of the table is determined by the layout of the lines of the table in the template. The table can be drawn with the table drawing tool located in the left side bar in GoLabel II. When printing labels are automatically placed at the top left corner of their corresponding cell. Headers are added automatically and are one font size larger than the font for the table data. There is by default a 20 dot indentation for the table values. Quantity values are right aligned, using white space characters, within the space of the widest quantity value.  If there is more data than there are rows drawn in the template table then the additional rows are added automatically based on the size of the last row. Without enough horizontal spacing the values in the table may overlap. Having extra horizontal space will help mitigate this issue.
