Scan a Barcode

As a driver, you can use Transflo Mobile+ to scan barcodes to populate fields in the app with your device camera. You might see a bar code field where you can scan in a code for any of the following examples:

  • bar code sticker on your trailer

  • load number or load ID

  • your driver photo ID

  • ELD serial number

  • RFID tag for a palette ID

  • QR code for a less-than-load (LTL) shipment or a loading dock code

  • fuel discount loyalty card in your wallet or on your key ring from a vendor with a chain of stores

 

 

  1. Complete your tasks and steps as normal.

    For example, as a driver, you might be filling out a safety form on your mobile device or completing a required trip sheet.

  2. If a bar code appears in a field, tap the field.

  3. You can enter an ID number or tap the bar code symbol to launch the integrated camera on your mobile device.

  4. Your camera goes into bar code scanning mode.

  5. Hold your device camera lens over the bar code you want to scan.

  6. Your camera identifies the code.

  7. The camera converts the code into an alpha-numeric ID and enters it in the field. You can edit the value if needed.
