Barcode Key Tags

myKeys - Keytracker supports the issuing and return of keys using Barcode Key Tags. Each key or bunch of keys is assigned a unique barcode, which is displayed on the key tag.  Users are also issued a unique barcode to enable quick and easy identification and issuing of keys.

Barcode Key tags provide fast and accurate key control.

Step 1.

Upon entering in the Key Issue screen, the operator is confronted with a screen where they are prompted to enter a Barcode.

Step 2.

When a Barcode is entered (scanned) the system checks to see if it relates to a Key or a User and display the appropriate details. The order in which the Barcodes are initially entered does not matter, in this example a Key Barcode was entered first. In this example, the screen prompt displays a message to enter the User Barcode, as shown below.

Step 3.

When a User Barcode is entered, the system displays their details and prompts the operator to enter a Due Date. When the operator presses Save, the transaction is completed and they are prompted to print a Key Issue Report. The screen returns to its original ‘blank’ status, awaiting input of the next Barcode.

Step 4.

When the operator enters either a Key Barcode or a User Barcode that relates to a Key/User already issued, the details of this transaction are displayed and the key can either be Returned or the Due Date can be amended.
