RTA Web - Printing Barcodes from a Citizen Label Printer

Installing Citizen Label Printer as a Network Printer

Before you can print barcodes from the Web Version of RTA you must first install the supported Citizen Label printer as a “Network” Printer. See section on RTA Web - Installing Citizen Label Printer

Printing Tags from RTA Web:

You have three areas you can print Barcodes from in RTA Web:

Printing Barcodes from the Parts Section:

To Print Barcode Tags from the Part file, follow the below process:

  1. Access the part file through the parts master list.

  1. Click on the Printer Icon in the Top Right Corner of the Part Screen.

  1. You will Navigate to the Print Tags Panel.

  1. The Tags to Print will default to the current quantity on hand for the current stock areas that you are using. You can print the default numbers or you can adjust what quantity you would like to print.

Note: Changing your Tags to Print number to less then you have on hand will not adjust your part in any way!

  1. Click Save.

  2. Click Print and the Tags should Print out from your Label Printer.

Printing Barcodes from the Part Tag Queue Section:

In this section we will explain how to print from the Generated Tag Queue parts and how to manually add/Delete Tags from the queue.

To understand the what the Tag Queue does see Parts Tags and Bin Labels: The Procedure section in the RTA Classic Doc’s.

Also see the Tracking Options Panel found in the RTA Web Parts - Details Tab on the Create Tags option. This is the option that triggers parts automatically to the Part Tag Queue.

Printing Tags that are automatically triggered (Part Tag Queue):

To Print Barcode Tags from the Queue go to the Part Management > Tag Queue section and follow the process below:

Note: Once you print the Tags from the Tag Queue list they will then be deleted off the current Tag Queue. Parts will trigger automatically to the Tag Queue through adding of new parts with starting quantities and/or with parts purchased from Purchase Orders for those parts with “Create Tags” turned on in the part record
