Barcode/QR-Code label specification

ELN, LIMS, Data management functionalities
1

Hello,

as of right now it is not possible to adjust the printing of the QR-Codes to include more text next to the QR-Code? For our application in the Lab context it would be very convenient if when printing the QR-Code not the just permId would be displayed underneath the QR-Code but also for example the object name, date and registrator would be printed (depending on user case). The QR-Code itself doesn’t need to change, just the output label could include some more information.

Here 2 pictures how it is currently displayed and how it would be convenient.

My question is essentially, if a function like this is planned or if there is any way to implement this from a admin/user side?

Thanks for the help :slight_smile:

Hi KatiK,
I remembered there was EMPA on the openBIS UGM 2025 that presented some similar solution as you’re looking for if I’m not mistaken. @Anusch Did you have any plugin for something like this that you presented?
If that’s the case, we’re also interested in exporting pdfs with barcodes that allows custom formatting.
What we are looking to achieve is for example a table like this where the barcode / qr-code image will be printed along other attributes:

barcode code registration_date sample_type
“the barcode image” XX1234 yyyy-mm-dd chemical
“the barcode image” XX1235 yyyy-mm-dd chemical

Thanks!
Filip
