When selling the product to end consumers online or in store, the product is equipped with a readable QR code, which leads after scanning to the product journey.
How to get the QR code for my style?
Go to Products → My Styles in the left navigation bar.
Create or upload styles.
Upon the creation of a new style, the QR code is automatically generated and tagged to the style. You can see it by going into the style page and to the 'DPP → QR code' tab, or by exporting your styles to Excel and accessing it via a URL.
Every Variant and SKU also has its own QR code. You’ll find them in the same Excel export, in the QR Code column of each Variant and SKU row.
QR code URLs are also available via the Public API (field qrCodeUrl), so you can retrieve them automatically for external labeling workflows.
What are the prerequisites for QR codes to work when scanned?
The following must be done so you can scan automatically generated QR codes:
The style is linked to a supply chain
'DPP Story' of the style is 'Active'
Note: A Variant’s or SKU’s QR code only works if the story of that same Variant or SKU is active. It does not fall back to the Style’s setting. If it isn’t active, the scan shows “not found”. Turning on the Style also turns on its Variants and SKUs, so this mainly matters if you turned one off separately.
How to attach the QR tags to products?
Once you have QR codes, the next step is to attach them to your products. This can be done in several ways. The following are the most common scenarios:
Printed directly into the fabric
Put on a placeholder hang tag
Printed on a hang tag which is attached to the product
Put onto a box or package where the product is placed into
How to verify the process?
Scan the QR code with your phone camera. Your phone asks if you want to open the link in your browser, where you can check the product’s journey.
