Barcode Filters

The barcode filter allows users to control access to media by barcode. The user can
specify ranges, wildcards, or explicit barcodes that either include or exclude media for
use by the product. This property only applies to libraries. Stand alone devices are not
restricted in any way by it.
The filter rules may be set for the whole domain and will be applied automatically to all
tasks. Or, they may be set and applied at job level. Any filter rules applied at job level
overwrite the default domain settings.

To set barcode filters for the domain

Display the Administration menu and select Configure Domain Server. (Or click on
the configure domain icon in the administration quick bar.)
Select Barcode Filter.
Click Add to create a new filter. There are three types of filter rules, which are described
below.
NOTE: Be sure to select the checkbox at the bottom of this page if you want to Allow all
jobs in the domain to use media which does not have an identifiable barcode.
