UDI Label Entries

A new label entry is created for each label printing job, which documents:

  • who submitted the print job from which page and when
  • for which public agency the UDI data was retrieved according to UDI Label Item Entries
  • whether and how label software has been used
  • whether all labels could be printed successfully

The label layout and data intended for printing on the label can be found in the Label Item Entries and Label Item Tracking Entries.

Note

The entries cannot be edited. For performance reasons, it may sometimes be the case that the Entry No. is not sequential, i.e., for example, 21 is followed by 24. Gaps do not indicate deleted data.

The UDI Label Entries page is accessed using Tell Me. Choose the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature icon, enter UDI Label Entries, and then choose the related link.

Label Item Entries and Label Item Tracking Entries

There are one or more label item entries for each label entry. A new label item entry is created for each item number. A new label item tracking entry is created for each serial number and lot number. The data mostly originates from the source document (e.g., the item number and lot number) and the UDI-DI used (e.g., quantity, DI number, symbols).

You can show or hide additional fields in the label item entries by choosing Functions > Toggle Source Field Visibility. These fields are used as source fields for UDI Symbol Codes.

Note

The Quantity (Base) as an item or item tracking quantity indicates how often the label was printed.

Reprint of Labels

An entire print job or individual labels from it can be reprinted from the UDI Label Entries page. To do this, choose

  • Report > Reprint Labels at the top of the page
  • or Functions > Reprint Labels on the label item entries and label item tracking entries.

Because a reprint is considered a new print job, new items are created as a copy of the previous ones. Only the following data is determined anew for each print job and can therefore deviate from the original print:

  • Source Page
  • Label Software Usage
  • Print Status
  • Layout and Label Software Printer Name
  • Company Information
  • Address or Contact Data (contact numbers are maintained, but the contact is read again)
  • Picture files for symbols
  • Item data (Description, Description 2, Translations)
Note

It is not possible to select a subset of the Quantity (Base) when reprinting individual labels. The entire quantity is always printed.

Tip

You can recognize reprints in the label entries by their Source Page ID 5559105 (Label Entries), 5559081 (Label Item Entries) and 5559083 (Label Item Tracking Entries).

Send to Label Software

When printing with label software, the data from label entries and label data entries are converted to a JSON file and sent to the label software.

To view this JSON file and exchange it with the label software provider if necessary, choose the Create JSON action. Because this does not result in the printing of a label, no new item is created. This action is also available if no label software is connected.
