There are 4 reasons why somebody would want to scan a tape with this App, and it is often different people who are scanning.
Scan to Move: This is done by the tape owner who wants to tell the software that certain tapes have to move from one location to another. This will place the tape in a “move status”.
This is done by a courier. The purpose of this is so that they know they have picked up the right tapes. If an unexpected tape is picked up or a tape is missing from the expected list there will be a warning displayed on the screen. Once this step has been completed the tapes will be marked as “picked-up”.
Once the tapes are confirmed at their location it will tell the system that the tapes have been returned. This takes the tapes out of a “move status”.
An Audit allows you to scan what you have and it will tell you if you have any tapes that you should not, or if any are missing. Tapes that are missing are flagged as audit failed on the system and as passed audit if they are where they are supposed to be.
The Log screen will show all activity from the current session.
