E-Manifest Readiness

Phone Scan Test

E-Manifest asks carriers to scan the SSCC barcode on every cash bag. Point your phone at the test barcode: a beep and a green tick mean your phone can read them.

Ready When You Are

Tap Start and allow the camera. Then hold the phone 6 to 12 inches from the test barcode, with the barcode inside the frame.

The camera runs inside this page only. Nothing is recorded, stored or sent anywhere.

If It Won't Read

The Test Barcode

An SSCC in the GS1-128 format that GS1 US specifies for cash bags. It uses GS1 US's example company number, so it can never match a real bag.

Test SSCC barcode, GS1-128: (00) 0 0614141 123456789 0

What A Pass Means

A pass shows the phone and its camera can read E-Manifest bag barcodes in a web app, with nothing to install. It does not test the rest of the job: the What-to-Expect files, the e-receipts and the Fed connection. Our plain guide to E-Manifest covers those, and we are glad to talk it through.
