Carry out this task

  1. Create or open the Before record on the linked tool.
  2. Save the corrected stock, then Rebuild QR Code and replace the old label.
  3. Check the saved After values before downloading the rebuilt label. Replace the older physical label.

Calculation and observed tool result

Before

1 bundles × 6 packs + 5 open packs = 11 packs

Recorded quantity: 11 packs.

After

1 bundles × 6 packs + 3 open packs = 9 packs

Recorded quantity: 9 packs.

What the result means

The new snapshot carries nine packs while an older device may still read eleven.

Limits of this example

The old code is not remotely revoked when the new one is built.

A mistake to avoid

Saving a new count alone cannot rewrite a paper label.
