Barcodes - Settings

The Barcode module allows you to define your barcode generation method, then the system will automatically generate unique barcodes for you (depending on the generation method selected) when you add new products to the system. You will also be able to print barcode labels and run reports containing barcode information.

This module is an optional add-on. If you cannot access the module from the HOME PAGE and would like further information, please click here HELLO ZEDONK

Please note that a barcode number cannot be duplicated in Zedonk. To re-assign a barcode number, you must delete the barcode number from the old product/size first.

This is where you define the settings to be used for generating your barcodes....

1. Barcode Type

Indicates the type of barcode that should be generated: “EAN-13” (13 digits)  or "UPC-A" ( 12 digits)

2. Generation Method

Three generation methods are available

Manual - Allows the user to manually enter barcodes as the system does not generate them for you

Random - Zedonk allocates barcodes within the numbers listed in Next Number and End Number in a random order. When the range is exhausted, Zedonk will not assign new barcode numbers. You must update the barcode number range for Zedonk to generate new barcode numbers.

Sequential - Zedonk allocates barcodes within the numbers listed in Next Number and End Number in a sequential order. When the range is exhausted, Zedonk will not assign new barcode numbers. You must update the barcode number range for Zedonk to generate new barcode numbers.

 

3. Next Number / End Number

Next Number: Indicates the next barcode number to be allocated

End Number: Indicates the last number available to be allocated

Start Number: Indicates the first barcode number in range (visible for Random allocation only)

Excel removes numbers with leading Zeros by default - to prevent issues with this in the future, it is recommended your range/ barcode numbers start with at least a '1' where possible.

Default label style selected when printing barcodes (can be manually overriden when printing)
