Re: BarCode

Use the FA Master 2.4.3+ as it stands included in the core now. If you already have a v2.4.3 install, then update it with the changed files since release from the Announcements post for the release.

Re: BarCode

@apmuthu

shouldn't this feature be also available in the UPC/EAN code @Foreign Item Codes pages?

Re: BarCode

go to setup > company setup.. then check "Use Barcodes on Stocks"
then you can generate barcode when adding a new item.

Re: BarCode

use a free online service like this
https://www.barcodesinc.com/generator/index.php

put the barcode number you got in the box and generate.
you'll then get the shape.

Re: BarCode

The Report in Items and Inventory, 'Check Stock Sheet' also print the barcodes if this is set in company setup.

Re: BarCode

This happens when the "Show Pictures" is set to "Yes" in the rep303 (Stock Check Sheets) form.

@Foreign Item Codes cannot have the barcodes that we generate/provide - they must follow what the supplier provides.

Re: BarCode

@apmuthu
No, if the 'use barcode on stocks' is set in company setup, the barcodes will always show up in this report.

Re: BarCode

Then if we need to suppress the barcodes in the reports, we need to disable the  'use barcode on stocks' if set in company setup temporarily! Wouldn't it be better to have a parameter in the report request form for this?

Updated the Wiki accordingly.

Re: BarCode

@mayassleiman I have used TCPDF for this invoice type. You can find so useful information here https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=9018
