Method, system and apparatus for supply chain event reporting

摘要

A system for recording events on a distributed ledger includes: a server; a terminal including a terminal processor executing an OS; and a data capture device including a housing, a data capture assembly configured to capture product data, a communication interface, a memory including a first driver and/or a firmware, and a processor executing instructions in the memory. The instructions include instructions to transmit the product data to the terminal through the communication interface. The terminal includes a second driver enabling the OS to communicate with the data capture device to accept the product data. At least one of the first and second drivers and the firmware includes a transmission flag changeable between activated and deactivated states. The activated state causes the product data to be transmitted to the server. Upon the product data satisfying a recordation condition, the product data is recorded, from the server, to the distributed ledger.
