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.

Hello 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).

Unable to see bar code in generated PDF

Hi!
I'm using the Oracle BI Publisher Template for Word 11.1.15.0. I have created a template, and one of the fields on which is to be a bar code.
I've read that BI Publisher comes with three bar code fonts pre-installed, so I have installed all of those fonts in windows. In Microsoft Word, all these fonts are available and display correct.
The 'xdo example.cfg' file contains the following entry.
 
 <truetype path="C:\Windows\Fonts\3of9.ttf" />
 The '3 of 9' font is displayed in the C:\Windows\Fonts\ folder as having the name 'BC 3of9 Regular', so I saw it fitting to add the following entry to my xdo.cfg file.
 
 <truetype path="C:\Windows\Fonts\B39R00_0.TTF" />
 That field rendered correctly in the template builder, but when I viewed the PDF, the bar code was not generated, it displayed the value I was passing text form.
This font appears as "BC 3of9" in the font drop down in Microsoft word, so I thought I had entered the font family mistakenly, and thus also added the following entry to the xdo.cfg file.
 
 <truetype path="C:\Windows\Fonts\B39R00_0.TTF" />
 I've tried another few changes unsuccessfully, so I guess I'm missing out something!
Help!

I'm using the BI Publisher add on for Microsoft word. I'm using RTF documents to generate templates to use for PDF generation. The add on has a PDF preview feature which doesn't display the barcode, and the barcode is also not generated while using the XSLT to generate the PDF.

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
JJ

Hi 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.

Amit Mittal.

How to read card reader (bar code reader) in simple java program ?

hai all
how to manipulate (read/write) card readers (or bar code reader ) in
a java program ?
should i import any particular package library ?
pls give me any sample code or tutorials or tools, etc (whatever you have) .
i am new to this card reader category
its very urgent
thank you .

Nearly all card readers and barcode readers I've ever seen simply stick their input right onto stdin, so you can capture it just as if it had been typed in on a keyboard

I need to pull data from a keyboard attached bar code reader, labview basic verison 8

Does anyone know how to pull the data sent by a keyboard attached bar code scanner using labview basic, version 8? I tried using the aquire input data function, however the data that it gives doesn't seem correct, and it also only seems to give one value out of the whole bar code. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Mike

You don't need anything more than a string control. A bar code scanner when used as a keyboard wedge, acts just like when you type something into the control with the keyboard. Make sure that the string control has focus and scan something.

Bar code for materials.

Hi Friends,
Our client wants to maintain bar code for the vendor provided material no.s. For vendor materil no.s we are using the old material numbers.so please explain how to use thisbar code for goods reciept, issue etc...please reply....

Hi Prasanna
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.

Printing scannable Bar Codes on PDF file?

Hi:
I am working a PO report (standard) and designing using RTF template to print as PDF output.
I need to print the item as bar code that needs to be scanned. I downloaded a free font 39 and registered in Admin tab of XML Publisher responsibility. I also installed the font in my local machine and added it in my template.
When I run the report and view the output, the bar code appears on PDF. When I try to scan the bar code, its not scanning the bar code.
What is the step that I am missing? Please help ASAP.

As a first step make sure you're using the correct start/stop characters for your barcode.
In this case for Code 39 you would need an asterisk * at the start and end of the barcode, make sure to apply the barcode to the asterisk as well.
sampledatafield
Edit: If you got the free font from a vendor check the terms of use on it. Some vendors will give you a font that will show you how it should look but it will not be scanable.

How to generate Bar codes from Crystal Report

I understand that Bar Codes can be genrated from Crystal reports. I am using CR 2008 and trying to convert my Inventory items to bar codes. it does convert it and I can see the bar codes but it looks like; just a garbage and scanner does not recognze it plus the numners are missing @ the bottom.
Anybody has ever tried this and have some simple instructions to start with.
Any help will be appreciated highly.
Regards,

Hi,
What barcode are you using and what barcode font?
If you are using Code39 or Postnet then you need to make sure your values are formatted properly by creating a formula and using the barcode functions.
Have a search in the forum for barcodes. It's been talked about a lot and you should find your solution.
Good luck,
Brian

Bar Code Reading in ABAP, through handheld scanner or say Barcode Reader

HI,
I want to scan the bar code label through the bar code reader, and get the bar code
no in sap abap.
Please let me know what settings and coding needs to be done to get the bar code
no that is scanned.
PLease let me know how i should go about it

Hi Niranjan,
There are a couple of third-party tools which can directly read the data from the barcode and you can use it in the ABAP program.
Alternatively create a dialog screen. USe the barcode scanner and get the data as an input parameter and based on the input parameter do what ever validation you require and then based on the output of the validation trigger your relevant processing.
Cheers

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.
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.

How can I solve this problem?
Thanks, everybody!

Hello,
The regular process is:
1- The Bank send us a file with all payment information;
2- SAP receives that file by a Z-interface that calls the FB01 transaction;
3- When I process the payments in the F110 transaction, some fields of the barcode were missing (amount and a value from brazilian legislation - expiration calculation factor);
Can you help me, please?
Tanks!
