Enforcing Barcode Scanning on Mobile Devices

To scan a barcode on a mobile device and have it automatically open the checksheet, you can enforce barcode scanning on the mobile device. When barcode scanning is enabled, if more than one checksheet exists, a list of all checksheets for the asset is displayed on the device. The appropriate checksheet can be manually opened and only indicators for that asset are displayed.
This topic explains how to enforce barcode scanning on a mobile device.
