Re: [WebERP-developers] Question about barcode field

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi Ricard,

I also use stockmaster.stockid=stockmaster.barcode (with 13 digits
barcodes). I use two label sizes; the "for public label" is 50 x 100 mm
(american 2 x 4 inches). I prefer to use 5 cm length barcode (for 13
digits), but you can use a 3 cm length barcode (you can reduce the size of
the barcode image and it still readable).

Sorry, I use other software to print labels because I did not know this in
webERP (I had no time to move from this other software to webERP, but I
will do). Nicola Asuni's TCPDF has parameters for Width/Height of a single
bar element in pixels (and put it in a cell + other elements like item
name, etc.; you can preview it in HTML and then print in PDF --as generate
a PDF from HTML--)

The barcode reader is used to input the stock code in CounterSales.php/Item
Code, SelectOrderItems.php?identifier=9999999999/OR Enter extract of the
Stock Code:, etc. instead of type ("write by fingers").

For me:
+ Pros: Everybody knows the stockmaster.stockid (except, obviously, the
private barcodes --200 series--).
- Cons: PDFPriceList.php sorts by "Item Code" instead of "Item Description"
(and barcodes arr by manufacturer and by first-come-first-code).

Best regards, Rafael.
