11.4 Matchings/Multi-Facing
The logical link between articles and the label that shows the article information and price of this
articles is called matching. With a matching the layout of the image rendered for the label is also
defined by specifying the name of a template.
In a more technical way a matching is the triple of:
l Label ID
l Article number(s) or GTIN
l Name of the template file
Note: Only one matching per label is allowed but articles may be matched to more than one label.
Select File – New matchings to open the dialog where you can select the desired data records and
create a number of matchings at the same time. To generate a multi-matching, multiple article
numbers separated with a comma have to be specified. Keep in mind that your template has to be
able to render a image for multiple articles.

Another way to create/edit matchings is under “Matchings – All Matchings”:
l Select the desired data records (Label ID, Article Number) in the following window “New Match-
ing Record“(either manually or with the magnifying glass symbol). Select an appropriate tem-
plate via “Template” that should be used to generate the image.
l Confirm your choice by clicking Save. After that, the generated image is sent to the selected
label.
