2D Bar code software or plugins
I am looking for software for OS X (Snow Leopard) that that can be used as standalone or in an application (say as a plugin) that can be used to generate bar codes: specifically 2D codes - either QR format or DM.
I have an app for the iPhone that will create the QR type; and there is also the Microsoft Tag format which is fairly easy to use; but a look in Versiontracker was not all that enlightening. Google was not that helpful either (too much or too little). I wonder if I can draw on anyone's experience in this area.
If you don't find anything at VersionTracker or MacUpdate or Google, then it most likely does not exist.

I haven't done anything with bar codes but I know one can do bar codes in Designer. I also know that in order to use dynamic bar codes I have to pay more money in order to use them. But I can add bar codes that are not dynamic that someone would be able to scan with out having to lay out any additional cost?
We use bar codes on many of our items that are generated by a bar code software which are then made into eps files and brought into QuarkXPress documents then printed. Now I hear that all forms we do are going to need a bar code.You can certainly use most barcodes in Designer without having to pay extra. All the barcodes are located in the Barcodes tab in the Library palette.
I believe the extra costs come into effect when you start using our Paper Forms Barcode technology which lets you encode field values into a 2D barcode on a form which will be filled-in electronically, then printed, signed (manually with a pen) and mailed/faxed back to your company. I believe you would then need our software to decrypt the encoded field values.
Other than that, you can put barcode objects on the form and set their properties using the Object palette. In particular, you can set their values at design-time (using the Object palette) as well as at runtime (using script) so if you know the value of the barcode that your form requires, it's simple.

What is the best software for cataloguing a large book collection into my iMAc. I would like to use a hand-held scanner, and scan bar codes, entering ISBN numbers only when necessary. Currently using Book Collector (www.collectorz.com) on a PC. desktop
I did something similar and used an application for my phone (Android OS at the time), which I can't recall the name of, to bulk scan the bar codes and subsequently upload the list to my mac in the form of an excel spreadsheet (it was a csv file). When I migrated to an iPhone, the application "Bar code scanner" performed in the same manner. Using my phone was by far the easiest method of bulk scanning (and subsequently cataloguing on my machine) in both instances.

How to print BAR CODE in SAP SMART FORMS
Hi,
I want to print inspection lot's BAR CODE in the smart form, but i dont know the way how to print this into the smartform.
if anyone have any idea, please suggest me how to print this as it is urgent for me to complete the object.
Thanks in advance.

Abnish JainHello Abnish,
Welcome to SDN.
We are able to print barcodes from smartforms. Doing this way, we print barcodes on laser printers.
We are also printing from sap to zebra printers using two ways:
1. Download the data to an excel sheet, then creating a macro that opens the printer port and sending the commands to the printer through this "file". All this is done via vb script provided with excel)..
2. The second way is creating a vbscript (an ascii file from sap) with the printer commands and then runing it using ws_execute.
You need a barcode reader to read the barcodes, and this scanner acts like a keyboard, it sends the data scanned to the active field on screen. (which might be a notepad, word, excel or an input field or ... ).
From 4.6c on, you can use smartforms to print barcodes without buying any barcode.dll software nor hardware extention like Bardimm on any laser/inkjet printer (Please Note that I haven't mentioned Zebra printers here!). To do this, you have to create a smartstyle -> character format with the desired barcode font (defined within sap). Then in the smartform, create a window, put the field and associate it the character format. That's all (I mean, that's all we do at least :-). I think, you have to consider the barcode specifications before sending the barcode value to the smartform (Just an example, if you're using 3 of 9, the code should start and end with an asterisk - '*' -) We're printing an interleaved 2 out of 5 barcode in our invoices due to a legal requirement, and we did it this way.
3. If you have a barcode scanner, then you should not need reading the barcode into an ascii file to get the data read in an standard or custom screen field. You can read it directly to the field you want. (unless... you have complex data coded in the barcode - for example if you're using an ean-ucc 128 compliant code and you're sending several fields in a single code ... In this case, an interface is almost mandatory because you must interpret the data fields according to the ucc standard, split the code into several fields .... and .... pure programming logic ).
To put it clear: if you have to read, for example, a barcode that holds the legal number of an invoice using a barcode scanner and this number should be sent to migo-> bktxt then you don't need an interface. The scanner itself acts like a fast operator entering the characters using a keyboard and filling in the field.
We're reading barcodes in several places (when we finish each pallet, when we receive an invoice, and so on. Each case is a different screen. We arent using an ascii file to read these barcodes. Furthermore, we read the invoice legal number into migo bktxt field (Head Text).

Interface with SAP / Bar code scanner.
Hello,
we are going to integrate bar code reader to SAP directly
Our thought are , Scanning the bar code and then using IDOC or directly connected to SAP - ZTables for converting the data into the SAP system..
is it possible to convert the bar code information ( such us material / batch etc..) in to SAP with an interface.
Any Input will be appreciated
Thanks for your help
JJHi JJ,
I may be just re-iterating what has already been said, but for clarity I will put down the points again, since I was also faced with the same confusion regarding how barcode and sap will work.
1. Barcode Scanner has nothing to do with SAP or any software.
In simple terms, it is just like a keyboard. To demo;
a) Plug in the barcode scanner in the USB port
b) Open Notepad in windows
c) The cursor will be inside the notepad
d) Now scan the bar code against any barcode image.
(Suppose the barcode image contains the information XYZABC)
e) As soon as you scan, the characters X Y Z A B C (without spaces)
will AUTOMATICALLY GET TYPED on the screen, inside the notepad, at the place of cursor.
Hence, the SCANNER just acts as a KEYBOARD.
and autommatically types in the characters WHEREVER the CURSOR is.
We can test this using notepad, Excel, word or any where the cursor can appear.
We can test in any standard sap screen on any text field also, etc.
2. Saving the data in SAP.
a) First we have to figure out how to save data in SAP,
considering we are entering data MANUALLY.
b) This can be a STANDARD Transaction or a Z transaction.
c) Suppose the field / information is material number,
then instead of TYPING the material number on the screen, in the field,
we simply place the cursor on that field.
d) then we simply scan the image (containing information on material n umber) and hooooooray,
it gets automatically TYPED IN on that field.
Thats it. Other fields we may have to enter manually and press the SAVE button to save the data.
Scanner just saves TYPING the information manually, and hence reduces time and error both.
Hope this helps.

How do I add a simple, 1D, uneditable bar code to a PDF?
I would like to add a simple 1D bar code to an existing PDF form. The bar code is used to identify me as the issuer of the PDF form and would not be edited by anyone else. If it is not possible to do in Adobe X Pro, is there a third-party software that would do the trick? Thanks.
Create a Form Field
When finish get out of Forms editing.
Place the Bar code in the field.
now go back to Forms Editing (From Tool bar)
Click on Field and hold down Control Key
Choose Make Read only or Read only.
Now see if you can password Protect the field Or Document and allow everything to be filled out except this field.
* Well I just tried to Password protect and individual cell but evidently I can't. Might be something I am not doing

Printing address bar codes in Appleworks
I use the database function in Appleworks to make a custom invoice system. Each 8.5" by 11" database "card" is an invoice. Prints out very nice, and I spaced things so it fits perfectly in a #9 Window envelope.
Problem is I would like to make more professional invoices, with a return slip. I really would like to be able to print those mailing barcodes you see on invoices from the big companies. I know Microsoft word's label printer supports this.
I have a feeling this could be possible. What I need to know is what font is the bar code (I've seen barcode fonts for Mac), and what do you type to be compatible with the USPS?
-JohnHi essenz,
"What I need to know is what font is the bar code (I've seen barcode fonts for Mac), and what do you type to be compatible with the USPS?"
'Ay, there's the rub,' to quote the Prince of Denmark.
Generating barcodes isn't a simple matter of substituting a barcode font for one showing arabic digits. You'll find some the details in the USPS POSTNET™ Barcode Certification, and more detailed specifications for one type of barcode in the USPS Confirmation Services Technical Guide.
A google search on 'usps barcode specifications' will bring up a number of suppliers ready to provide the software and equipment,

Hi Friends,

A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
The next part of the equation can be a bit tricky as you will need to get a printer to print that barcode font. Regular laser printers does not normally print barcode fonts, only specialized industrial printers that is specifically designed to support that protocol and that uses specialized label media and heat transfer (resin) ribbon to create the sharp image required for barcodes.
Not to fear though, there are two ways to get around this:
- You can have your IT department do some research -
most laser printers can accept a font cartridge/dimm chip (similar to computer memory), called a BarDIMM that will allow a laser printer to support the printing of barcodes.
- Secondly, you can buy software that you can upload in your SAP print Server that will convert the barcode symbology as an image that will print on a regular laser printer. I found that this option results in less sharper barcodes. This option is really if you need to convert a large quantity of printers (>10) to support barcodes.
- Thirdly, you can buy a third party software like Barcode.dll and install on your frontend PC connected to the laser printer.
Now you have a barcode printed - what next?
Well there are two options, depending on your business requirements:
- You can use an existing SAP transaction on a regular workstation and get a barcode wedge reader to hook up between the keyboard and the PC. These wedge readers comes in a wand or scanner format. There are even wireless wedge scanners available that allows you to roam a few yards from the workstation to scan a label. This approach is mostly used where you want to prevent human errors in typing in long material, batch or serial numbers in receiving or issuing of material. The problem is that it's just replacing the keyboard input and you are basically locked down in one location and have to bring all the material to that location to process.
- Another solution is to use SAPConsole transactions
or write your own ABAP Dialog programs that will fit onto a barcode enabled wireless handheld terminal and that will follow the business logic as executed on the shop floor.
These programs are highly complex exercises in industrial engineering and ergonomics because of the limited screen sizes and limited ability to accept keyboard input. The user is instructed step-by-step and only scan and push F-keys to interact with the SAP system. Scan, scan, beep, beep, enter - highly automated.

I have a curve 9300 and I am unable to scan a bar code and 9 times out of 10 it causes my phone to freeze and I have to remove the battery is it a problem with the software or with the phone its self
Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner:
With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescirbed for most gltiches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
Now, try the QR code scan again.

Only Se71 is used to create a barcode
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.

Hi all,
Our Production system was installed with following modules (PP, MM, SD, QM & FICO )
we are running Bar-code data in SAP system. Because of this our database size is growing somuch. Is it advisable to keep barcode data in SAP system. If yes what are the implications of the SAP systems. OR can i use third party software for Barcode data generation.
SAP system performance is de grading day by day
Please give your valuable suggestions.
regards
RameshHi,
We are using barcode too on our system, which is for production order (order ID) for stock and goods movement purpose.
Our mechanism is converting production order number (EAN) into a graphical barcode (Code 39) while printing a production order label. By this method we are not keep barcode image on our system, but anytime we need this barcode, we just print it.
Database size grow so much?
- consider data aviodance/ data archiving
SAP system performance is degrading day by day
- how do you justify that barcode is the root cause of your performance degradation? maybe you have to take a look inside your system : checking user activities, parameters, I/O, CPU usage, expensive SQL statement, table reindexing, table statistics etc that may help you to solve your performance issue.
- if you are sure that the huge database size is the major problem of your performance degradation, consider data archiving as mentioned above. note that data archiving still give you opportunities to read data even though data has been archived. we have done for all module we have PP, MM, WM, SD, FI, CO and found no issue about reading data from archive.
- consider to reorganize, that table fragmentation may contribute in database size.
hope it help you.

Hi experts,
Has anyone used the bar code functionality in Fixed Assets?
I don't have any documentation on it but it would be very helpful in order to print labels for our assets.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot,
DrazenHi,
Please refer to SAP note Note 172251 - Physical inventory and inventory systems, extract of which is below:-
I have got in touch with the vendor as well who support this process and i can forward you the extract tomorrow.
Summary
Symptom
How can executing a physical stock entry be supported by the R/3 system within a physical inventory for assets?
Additional key words
Cause and prerequisites
Solution
In Release 4.5A, standardized interfaces (BAPIs) are available which permit a connection of a corresponding non-SAP software to the R/3 system. You can use these BAPIs for example if the physical inventory for assets should be executed with the help of an external system. The BAPIs allow the transfer of the current asset portfolio of the R/3 System to the non-SAP software and permit processing of information collected in the external system in Asset Accounting of the R/3 System.
The following BAPIs may be of interest to you in the context of a physical inventory for assets:
BAPI_FIXEDASSET_GETLIST
(Information on selected assets)
BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CHANGE
(Asset master records can be changed with this method)
BAPI_ASSET_RETIREMENT_POST
(An asset retirement is posted within Asset Accounting with the help of the method "Post", and the update in Financial Accounting is triggered by the document resulting from this transaction.)
BAPI_ASSET_ACQUISITION_POST
(An acquisition is posted within Asset Accounting with the help of the method "Post", and the update in Financial Accounting is triggered by the document resulting from this transaction.)
BAPI_ASSET_POSTCAP_POST
(A post capitalization is posted within Asset Accounting with the help of the method "Post", and the update in Financial Accounting is triggered by the document resulting from this transaction.)
The procedure of an integrated inventory scenario could be as follows:
1. First the external system receives an overview of the assets available in the R/3 system (BAPI_FIXEDASSET_GETLIST).
The physical inventory is then executed in the external system.
2. If the asset found is identical with how it is stored in the R/3 system, you can use the BAPI BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CHANGE to update the date of physical inventory in the asset master record.
3. If the asset found differs from how it is stored in the R/3 system, you can use the BAPI BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CHANGE to make the change in the asset master record.
4. If the asset is no longer found during physical inventory, you can post the retirement with the BAPI BAPI_ASSET_RETIREMENT_POST.
5. If assets are found during physical inventory which are not stored in the R/3 system, you can create the asset master record with the BAPI BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CREATE1 and post the asset acquisition with the BAPI BAPI_ASSET_ACQUISITION_POST.
Report RABARC01 offers you the option to print bar codes which can be used to identify the asset during the physical inventory for assets with the help of an external system.

HP service Tags - what type of bar codes do they use?
Hi there,
i have asset tracking software and a bar code scanner. I'm looking to know what type of bar code is on the HP service tags. As i want to be able to scan in the bar code to give me the serial number of the machine.
thanks,
PaulHi,
your problem is that you are trying to resolve a problem related to a specific statement by using instance-wide tools. You should look at performance stats for that particular statement.
1) Identify sql_id of the offending statement (e.g. select sql_id from v$sql where sql_fulltext like '%part_of_statement_text_here%', if it doesn't return results check case or look in
dba_hist_sqlstat)
2) Look for records with this sql_id in DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY (use filter on sample_time). Compare performance indicators for the timeframe of the incident and outside it
3) You can also find performance stats for this statement in DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT, but you will have aggregates over snapshot duration
Given your symptoms, the most logical explanation is a plan flip. Check plan_hash_value in DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT -- if it changed around the time of the incident, that will confirm your suspicion.
Use dbms_stats.display_awr to display both "good" and "bad" plan. Try to understand the key difference, look at predicates for any hint that could explain it. If it doesn't give you results,
use format=>'advanced' to generate outlines for both plans, then you can set STATISTICS_LEVEL=ALL and run the statement with both plan, producing extended plan statistics. Use
dbms_xplan.display_cursor(..,..,format=>'allstats last') to display it. If having difficulty interpreting it, post it here to get the help from community.
