COLUMN DESCRIPTIONS
- Barcode Number: The QR code number on the customer's Hang Tag.
- Start Date: The Hang Tag will be accepted beginning on this date (and not before).
- End Date: The Hang Tag will be accepted ending on this date.
- Hang Tag Type: This is an internal field that allows you to create a "note" of the Hang Tag's type or purpose.
- Hours Between Scans: Your options are 0, 6, 12 or 24. The system will block out that Hang Tag for the specified number of hours after it has been scanned, choosing 0 means the Hang Tag can be reused again immediately.
- Limit Redemptions: This field can be Yes or No. If Yes, the system will track the number of times the Hang Tag has been used and stop accepting scans once it reaches the maximum number of uses. You must populate the Allowed Redemptions column if you select Yes.
- Allowed Redemptions: This field must be a number and is only used if Limit Redemptions is set to Yes. This is the maximum number of times the Hang Tag will be accepted.
- Restrict Locations: This field can be set to Yes or No. If yes, the Hang Tag will only be able to be redeemed at specified Locations. You must populate the Allowed Locations column if you choose Yes.
- Allowed Locations: This field is only used if Restrict Locations is set to Yes. Please list the ID(s) of the location(s) at which the Hang Tag can be redeemed separated by a dash "-" if there are multiple allowed locations.
