 These characteristics make **GS1 DataMatrix** the optimal choice for modern warehouse applications, but if your scanner hardware is not capable of scanning 2D codes, then you must use **GS1-128**.
+Note that using a modern format like DataMatrix might also make your barcodes incompatible with other, more primitive scanning solutions.  So in case COBI.wms is not the only software you use for scanning your codes, or in case you want to make it possible for your business partners to scan your codes (who might not be using COBI.wms), then you might want to use GS1-128, or not use GS1 at all and instead print separate barcodes for separate pieces of data (like one for item code and another one for serial number) for maximum compatibility with old scanning solutions.
