Chapter 1 — TELIA Integration
LESSON INFO
Audience
- Warehouse operators using the Scanner App to create TELIA move requests.
- Facility admins and supervisors validating that TELIA request creation is working end to end.
Prerequisites
- In the Scanner App, you can access Create TELIA Request from the Main Menu Grid or the Menu Drawer.
- You have a role that can submit TELIA requests (see Roles and permissions below).
Skills you’ll build
- Create a TELIA request from the Scanner App using the required fields.
- Recognize and resolve validation prompts without losing entered data.
- Collect the right troubleshooting details when a request cannot be submitted.
LESSON OUTLINE
Concept
- A TELIA request is a command sent to TELIA to move an item to a selected destination.
- The Scanner App validates required fields before submission.
- If validation fails, the app keeps your inputs so you can correct and retry.
Create a TELIA request
- In Item ID, scan or type the item.
- In Customer:
- If you only have one customer context, the field is read-only.
- If more than one customer is available, select the correct customer.
- In Cradle:
- Enter or scan a cradle only when required.
- Cradle is mandatory if the location is unknown or when receiving an item into TELIA automation.
- In Destination, select a destination.
- Destination is mandatory.
- (Optional) Review Available Positions.
- This section shows Footprint/position combinations by Bay to help users select destinations that can verifiably accommodate a given item.
- This section is hidden by default.
- It becomes visible when the scanned item is not currently in TELIA automation.
- Select Create TELIA Request.
- Confirm you receive a confirmation popup indicating the request was created.
Safe edits
- If you scanned the wrong value:
- Re-scan into the same field.
- Or use the Clear icon to reset (confirm the prompt).
- If you are unsure about a selection:
- Stop and confirm the Customer and Destination before submitting.
- If a required field is missing:
- Use the prompt to find the first incomplete field.
- Complete it and re-submit. Your previous inputs should be preserved.
Verification
- Primary success signal (Scanner App):
- A confirmation popup appears after submission.
- If a request is created successfully, users can see it from the Requests menu on the TELIA Dashboard.
- If submission fails:
- Capture the exact prompt text.
- Capture the Item ID, selected Customer (if applicable), Cradle (if used), and Destination.
- Retry once after correcting the missing/invalid field.
- Contact TELIA support if the issue persists.
COMMON ISSUES
-
Likely cause
The camera cannot read the barcode.
Checks
Retry the scan.
Confirm the barcode is not damaged or obstructed.
Fix
Scan again.
If scan continues to fail, type the value manually.
-
Likely cause
The scanned value does not match the expected format for the field.
Checks
Confirm you scanned the correct barcode for the target field (e.g., Item ID vs Cradle).
Fix
Re-scan the correct barcode.
Or type the value manually.
-
Likely cause
System or network error during submission.
Checks
Confirm your device has network connectivity.
Confirm the issue persists after one retry.
Fix
Retry submission.
If it still fails, report the issue with: Item ID, Facility, Destination, timestamp, and the exact error message.
