How IntelliDate SPD Works

Three simple steps from the touchscreen to the tray.

1

Choose a Tag

Select the hang tag you need from the touchscreen menu — repair, out of service, incomplete tray, loaner, and more.

2

Type the Details

Enter the item or tray, reason, initials, and notes right on the screen. Date and time can fill in automatically.

3

Print & Hang

Print a clean, easy-to-read tag and attach it. Everyone on every shift sees the same clear information.

IntelliDate SPD Features

Everything you need to move your hang tags from handwritten and pre-printed to automated.

Type Directly on Screen

Enter all tag information on the touchscreen for complete, printed tags — no pens required.

Automatic Date & Time

Date and time can be added automatically to every tag, keeping records accurate and consistent.

Easy-to-Read Tag Format

Large, bold tag titles and clearly labeled fields let staff understand a tag’s status at a glance.

Print on Demand

Print the exact tag you need, when you need it — no more searching for the right pre-printed tag.

Custom Tag Designs

Tags can be set up with your department’s wording, fields, and layout to match the way your team works.

Better Shift Handoffs

Standard printed tags reduce confusion between team members and departments across every shift.

Two Ways to Print

Most teams type everything in — but fill-in tags are always available when you need them.

Recommended

Fully Typed Tags

Type all of the information on the screen and print a finished tag. No handwriting, no guessing — just clear, legible details every time.

  • ✅ Every field printed and easy to read
  • ✅ Consistent wording across staff and shifts
  • ✅ Fastest way to tag an item
Flexible

Fill-In Tags

Print a tag with the title and labeled blank fields, ready to be filled in by hand — great for staging tags ahead of time.

  • ✅ Print only what you need, when you need it
  • ✅ Labeled fields keep handwritten tags organized
  • ✅ No more stockpiles of pre-printed tags
