We're exploring rapid entry systems for our Museum lobby. We've been testing with VISTA by TicketMaster. However, the default barcode on RE membership cards is not the actual member ID number. In order for VISTA to work, membership card scanning must include the member ID in the barcode to pull...

I was wondering if anyone is using Patron Edge barcode scanning feature with the wireless scanners. We are having some issues with the device not scanning fast enough, so i was wondering what other users are doing for scanning large groups.

Is anyone using scanners and the bar code label feature in Financial Edge Fixed Assets module? What type of printer and label do you use? We had hoped to use a thermal printer and heavy duty label for the assets, but I don't want to spend the money to purchase equipment and test and not have it work...

We send out surveys and get responses, they are non financial asks. Does anyone know a way to barcode so that we can scan, pull up the record and record their response- we want to save time searching for the constituent. I think we would have to do some VBA or SQL code, but not too sure. Thanks for any...

We have the Memberships module and Scanning in The Raiser's Edge. We print membership cards w/ the barcode from RE. We also have a 3rd-party POS system for sales and - trying to - to scan membership cards. What's the best way to do this? I've tried several things and nothing is working yet...

Linda, how did you resolve this? We're trying to use a 3rd-party POS/scanning system at our organization. They need an export daily of all the current members with the barcode scanning numbers. I'm pulling my hair out! Any advice? marilyn

It's been about five years since I've worked with barcode scanners, for retail use. But I remember that the scanners were programmable. The manual was full of barcodes to use in programming. You just scanned one code and it went into program mode. Then you scanned other codes to set various options...

Hi folks, I have read the other forum thread on babysitters and understand it's up to the organization's membership policies. What I'd like to discuss is the nuts and bolts of adding the babysitter as a relationship record of the constituent, and adding the babysitter as a joint member and...

We have a large event where I need real-time stats regarding registration check-in (how many people have checked-in, timestamp, etc) from an event we track in RE. Essentially I want to export all registrants out of RE - import them into a software package that allows me to print a barcode next to their...
