Batch data is the actual information printed on the supply. Batch
data fills in the format’s text, bar code, and non-printable text
fields.
Batch data fields should be sent in field number order. Use
continuation fields for large amounts of data. If you are using
N
(New) in the batch header, you must list all fields with your data in
sequence. If you are using
U , you need to list only those fields
and data that changes from the last printed batch.
