Checks and steps

1. List the exact fields that the QR code must carry and which system owns them.
2. Define separators, order, required values, encoding and maximum expected length.
3. Bind the QR-code object to the same controlled data fields used by visible text where appropriate.
4. Test empty values and the longest realistic record.
5. Scan with the real mobile device or scanner and inspect the decoded text.
6. Confirm that the downstream application interprets the payload correctly.
