Settings & Hardware

You reach the settings via the gear icon in the footer. If they are protected by a Settings PIN, enter the 4-digit PIN first.

Most values are filled automatically during QR pairing – here you review or complete them and set up the connected hardware.

Connection to Business Central

Setting Meaning
Tenant ID Azure AD tenant (from QR)
Client ID Entra app registration (from QR/Setup)
Client Secret Only for Windows background operation; entered masked
Environment BC environment (e.g. Production)
Company ID Company – selectable via Lookup from BC

Via Test connection, the app checks reachability, determines the setup identifier and registers the terminal automatically if required.

Terminal

Setting Meaning
Terminal Code Code of this device (from QR) – registered on first connection
Terminal Description Display name in the app header
Location Code Location – selectable via Lookup from BC

Scanner

Scanner Type Suitable for How it works
Keyboard (Keyboard Wedge) Windows packing station with USB scanner Scanner "types" the code, terminated with Enter
DataWedge Zebra Android devices (TC/ET series) Intent-based; intent action configurable
Camera Devices without a hardware scanner On-screen scan via the device camera

Zebra DataWedge

On Zebra devices, select DataWedge and – if specified by the MDM profile – enter the DataWedge Intent Action. This ensures hardware triggers are reliably detected.

Scale (TCP/IP)

For weight capture in Goods Issue and Item Weighing:

Setting Default Meaning
Scale Host – IP address/hostname of the scale
Scale Port – TCP port of the scale
Scale Command W Query command (e.g. W for many industrial scales)

Via Test scale, a connection is established and a weight is read. Common TCP/IP scales (e.g. Kern, Mettler-Toledo) are supported.

Label Printer (ZPL)

Setting Default Meaning
ZPL Printer IP – IP address of the Zebra printer (from QR)
ZPL Printer Port 9100 TCP port
Test ZPL – Sends a test to the printer
Auto-Print Label – Shipping label automatically after posting
Auto-Print Packing List – Packing list automatically after posting

Document Printer (PDF, Windows only)

Setting Meaning
PDF Printer Name Windows printer for A4 documents (packing lists) – selectable via lookup
Use Local Config Use the local printer configuration instead of the BC/terminal defaults

ZPL vs. PDF

Shipping labels are sent directly to the thermal printer as ZPL; packing lists and PDF labels go through the Windows printer. Label printing (item/bin) uses ZPL exclusively.

Diagnostics

The settings provide test buttons for BC connection, scale and ZPL printer. Use these after every pairing or hardware change to detect errors early.
