An accumulator file can take data from any numeric text or bar code field on a label (or from multiple labels) after printing and add its value to a pre-determined accumulator file.
The accumulator file can then be selected as a data source for a field, so that you can print the accumulated data on a label.
Accumulator files can be used to track work and printing. For example, you can use accumulator files to:
- Count the number of items or labels being produced, and print an end-of-day production report.
- Add the weight from all labels produced, accumulate the total weight, and then print a carton label with the total weight of all items.
- Count carton weights and print a pallet weight label, then clear the carton total after printing.
NOTE: Accumulator (.acm) files are stored in the location for Serial/Accumulator files defined in the Directories dialog box.
