Hi,
Functional consultant will do the detailed study about the material movements in the plant. if the industry need the barcode requirement,
Functional consultant is the person who needs implement the barcoding process. he need to all the configuration and if there is any gap then he need to prepare a functional specification and ABAPPER will do the required developement.
Basis intervention is there to have the SAP GUI in barcode reader(GUN).

How to print bar codes in sap script and smartform

bar code sheet to print for particular customer when the
transfer order is created.

Hi,
You create a bar code or change a bar code in the font maintenance transaction (transaction SE73). To do this, proceed as follows:
○ Start transaction SE73, and choose System Bar Codes ® Change.
○ If you create a bar code, the system asks whether you want to use the new bar code technology or traditional system bar codes. Choose New.
You can enter a name and a description for the bar code. Note that the name must begin with a Zto avoid conflict between your bar codes and the standard bar codes.
2. If you have created a new bar code, you must now add this to a Smart Style as a character format. For information about this, see the section Maintenance of Styles with the Style Builder and its subsections in the Smart Forms documentation.
If you have only changed the bar code, continue with the next step.
3. You can now select text in Smart Forms and choose the corresponding style with the bar code as the character format for this text.
4. You can then print the bar code.

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.
Best Regards,
Abnish Jain

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).

How to maintain QR Code & BAR Code in SAP Script and Smart Form ?

I want to place QR code (Quick Response Code) and Bar Code In my invoice . I searched from many resources but i couldn't get any appropriate answer . So , Please help me to solve this problem.

Hello,
SAP Note 1557674 - "Overview of bar code printing from SAP" shows the 5 possibilities how barcodes can be printed from SAPScripts and SmartForms.
In your case the following possiblities can help:
DIMM/SIMM module: in this solution you need to additionally purchase and install a DIMM/SIMM module to your printer. Then you can send the command sequence from the SAPScript/SmartForm to this module, and the barcode will be printed. (The command sequence should be described in the manual book of the module.)
barcode.dll file: in this solution you need to additionally purchase and install a barcode.dll file, which will handle the barcodes. Please note: this solution only works with SAPWIN Device Types (and therefore only on Windows OS). The command sequence should be also described in the manual.
New bar code technology: in this case R/3 creates the barcode itself, and the barcode will be forwarded as a simple image to the printer. Unfortunately QR code can not be created with this solution - according to SAP Note 1557674 the following barcodes can be created:
Code39, Code93, Interleaved 2of5, Code128, PDF417.
(There are 2 further solutions in the mentioned Note, but the "bar code font" solution can not be used for 2D barcodes like QR code, and the "PDF-based form" solution means that SAPScript and SmartForm can not be used).
Alternatively, here is a document which explains how QR codes can be displayed in SmartForms with alternative solutions:

Re: BAR Codes generation through SAP

Dear All,
Is it possible to generate BAR Codes in SAP.
Regards,
Vivek

Hi,
Yes this is possible to print the bar code thorough SAP.
For KANBAN process SAP has given standard functionality to print the bar code.
T CODE: PK17.
For other like bar code on production order print , job ticket print ..........
is possible. For this first you have to create one form which contains the layout of the print out.
You can see the std layout though SE17 transaction.
Barcode is noting but it's one type font like Normal, arial..
So bar print is possible, please take some help from developer.

How to print BAR code in SMART Form

Hi All,
I have the requirement to print BAR CODE in Smartforms.
For this, I create a character format with Bar code in style forms and create a text element in Smart form and associate bar code character format with this text element.
Now when I look the print preview for the data, then it shows me data in bar code format but not in right format i.e. its shows me all the similar block in bar code.
If you look the bar code in SAP script, its always show you bar code with similar block, but in SMART FORM it will show you exact bar code; as in SAP Script, bar code is generated at printer end and in SMARTFORM bar code is generated as graphic in SAP and then sent to printer for print.
PLease let me know, why in SMARTFORM its not showing BAR CODE in correct format in print preview.
Thanks

Hi,
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.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.

Detailed information about SAP Barcodes
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.

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.
Regards,
Amit Mittal.
