-====== Query (Scanning In) ======+====== Query (Receive) ====== 
 + 
 +The Query process is receiving [[object:volume|Volumes]] from another [[object:repository|Repository]] in a move status into the Target [[object:repository|Repository]], usually involving putting [[object:volume|Volumes]] into allocated Slots. 
 + 
 +The ''Query'' Option in the Toolbar will set the **Start Scan** operation to Query Mode.  
 + 
 +{{:checkpoint:checkpoint_query.png?700}} 
 + 
 +===== Adding Volumes ===== 
 + 
 +Add required [[object:volume|Volumes]] to the **Scan In** window by right-clicking either/or: 
 +  * [[object:customer|Customer]] - to add all [[object:media|Media]] in a move status. 
 +  * [[object:media|Media Type]] - to add all [[object:volume|Volumes]] in a move status of that [[object:media|Media Type]]. 
 +  * Repository - to add all [[object:volume|Volumes]] in a move status from that [[object:repository|Repository]]. 
 +  * Target Repository - to add all [[object:volume|Volumes]] moving from the Current [[object:repository|Repository]] to the Target [[object:repository|Repository]]. 
 + 
 + 
 +Select required [[object:volume|Volumes]], based on movement direction, from the **Add Filters** window by checking the boxes and clicking ''OK''
 + 
 +If any [[object:volume|Volumes]] are added by error, select from the Main Menu ''Process''->''Special Operations''->''Clear Selected'' to remove all [[object:volume|Volumes]].   
 + 
 +Add new selection of [[object:volume|Volumes]] by following the above steps. 
 + 
 +===== Scan Volumes ===== 
 + 
 +Once all required volumes have been added to the **To Scan** window, from the main menu select ''Process''->''Start Scan'' to initiate the **Scan** window. 
 + 
 +During Query Mode, the scan requirements can be set to: 
 +  * **Mode 0** : Volume only. 
 +  * **Mode 1** : Zone and Volume. 
 +  * **Mode 2** : Zone, Slot and Volume 
 + 
 +Set the mode required by entering the mode control character (0, 1 or 2by scanning appropriate barcode or through the keyboard. 
 + 
 +{{:checkpoint:checkpoint_pick_scan_mode.png?700}} 
 + 
 +Other control characters that can be used within the scan window include: 
 +  * **C** : Read out current Container-ID 
 +  * **D** : Enable/disable duplicate scan warning 
 +  * **R** : Repeat current [[object:volume|Volume-ID]] 
 +  * **S** : Skip current [[object:volume|Volume]] in Scan List 
 +  * **W** : Enable/disable **not in list** warning 
 + 
 +Scanning a [[object:volume|Volume]]  will prompt Checkpoint to read out Zone and Slot assigned. 
 +  * If in mode 0, scan the volume and place in assigned slot. 
 +  * If in mode 1, scan the assigned zone and then the [[object:volume|Volume Barcode]] and place in assigned Slot. 
 +  * If in mode 2, scan Zone, Slot and then [[object:volume|Volume Barcode]] and place in assigned Slot. 
 + 
 +Once [[object:volume|Volumes]] have been scanned, close the **Scan** window by clicking the ''X'' in thop right corner. 
 + 
 +<note important>If [[checkpoint:receipts|physical delivery receipts]] are required, [[checkpoint:receipts|print]] these before updating server.</note> 
 + 
 +===== Update Server ===== 
 + 
 +From the Main Menu, select ''Process''->''Update Server'' to push the data up to the Server.  
 + 
 +{{:checkpoint:checkpoint_pick_update_server_query.png?700}} 
 + 
 +Any errors from scanning (e.g. scanned incorrect [[object:volume|Volume]] or had wrong [[object:customer|Customer-ID]] in default field in the **Scan** window) will be presented. Click ''Clear Warning'' to remove the errors and update the Server.   
 + 
 +{{:checkpoint:checkpoint_pick_update_server_messages.png}} 
 + 
 +Click ''OK'' to the popup to confirm the Server update. 
 + 
 +{{:checkpoint:checkpoint_pick_update_server_messages_confirm.png}}
