Who this is for
Business owners and reviewers planning a software demonstration or an application project.
Worked example — sample data only
Use three sample items: a normal code, a leading-zero code and an unreadable label. Test the actual scanner, keyboard layout and printer combination; this is not a compatibility certification.
Acceptance worksheet
| Test | Expected result and observed evidence |
|---|---|
| Check that leading zeros are preserved | Record the observed result; an untested row stays unknown. |
| Confirm unknown codes do not silently select another item | Record the observed result; an untested row stays unknown. |
| Scan after printing and record device model and result | Record the observed result; an untested row stays unknown. |
How to run the worksheet
Use an isolated test environment and labelled sample data. Agree the expected result with the person responsible for the business process before testing. Record the version, device, market, date, tester and the evidence for each row. Do not trigger real customer calls, messages, payments or orders.
Limitations and next steps
This is a planning test pack, not proof that a named product supports the workflow. Confirm the exact released edition, supported devices, prices and support terms separately. A successful demonstration is not a security certification or a universal capacity guarantee.
