Add/Remove Handhelds in BookLink

Modified on Tue, Oct 4, 2022 at 7:12 PM

To export to or import from a handheld, BookLink must know the handheld number.


A DM is responsible for maintaining this list for their district.



  1. In your district's BookLink, click File Maintenance  > Table Codes


  2. Set the Type to Handheld Codes and click the Add button at the bottom of the screen

  3. Enter the handheld's four-digit number under Code.
  4. Enter a description in the Description field. This is often the user's name.
  5. Click Save


Once you've added a handheld to a district, you can send files to the handheld from the Handheld Exports screen. 

BookLink also uses this list to search for files in the Handheld Import dialog.


Make sure the person is added as an employee in the District BookLink (instructions here). 

Each rep must service under their own name on the handheld.
