Barcoding

The Inventory module (and all of our Windows modules) have the capability to print barcodes. You can add barcodes based on any field of any report or label format. This capability is especially useful in the Inventory module, where you can generate item labels, receiving labels, shelf labels, and so on, all with barcodes.

Below left, is a screen for the Item Labels program. On the right you can see that that many different label formats have been added, including some preset to include barcodes. Barcodes are added to these formats, and any others you wish, in the DOS System Administrator Modify Reports program.

RTS-Advantage supports all the most popular 1-D barcode symbologies. This is what is offered:

UPC-AUPC-ECode 39Code 93Code 128EAN-8
EAN-13EAN/UCC 128Interleaved 2 of 5BookLandCodaBar 

And the barcodes are flexible, too. You have control over the vertical size, the narrow bar width, whether text is shown under or over the barcode or not at all, rotation on the page, color, and options for bearer bars and quiet zones.

Keep in mind that you can barcode ANY field on a report. It doesn't have to be the item number -- how would you like your item price labels to have the selling price barcoded so clerks can just swipe on the price?  No problem!
