Generating QR codes for flexible workspaces
It is possible to generate QR codes for one or more flexible workspaces. These QR codes can be scanned by Planon mobile apps users to claim a workspace.
The
Generate QR code option is located on the action panel and is only available if a workspace is selected.
Procedure
1. Go to the Graphical Planner > Flexible Workspace.
2. From the list of flexible workspaces, select one or more workspaces for which you want to generate a QR code.
If multiple items are selected, different QR codes are created for different workspaces.
3. Click on the Generate QR code button. The following screen appears:
4. Set the Error Correction level either to Low, Medium, Quartile or High.
It is recommended to select
Medium, because codes generated at the medium level can be scanned faster by the apps and are suitable for office environments.
If there is a need to create QR codes for industrial places, select the
High error correction level. This allows codes to be scanned even if they are partly covered. The scanning, however, will be slower if this setting is used.
5. Select the Include code in QR option if you want to include the code in the image. Select this option only if it is necessary, as the code will be included in the file name of the image anyway.
It is not recommended to select the
Include code in QR option, as the dimensions of the image will be disturbed when the code number is included.
6. Click the Download option to generate the QR code(s).
A folder named QRcodes.zip is downloaded. Extract the files from the .zip file to view the generated codes.
The generated codes are stored in
.png format and are transparent. It is not possible to choose a different file extension.
A generated QR code looks like this:
