Bar codes in Smart Forms

Hello,
Maybe anyone could provide short guidance how to create SmartForm for fixed assets barcode labeling?

hi,
You need to use a SMARTSTYLE and create a CHAR format and create a BAR Code there and use it in the Smartform.
If you need more info, goto Transaction : SMARTSYLES, do an F4 and in the text area, look for Bar Codes. And see how these Styles are used in the Smartforms.
If somehow you can't preview it properly and the printout didn't show any barcode at all..
First try to use Standard Barcodes like TYPNR or RSNUM etc in the charcter format...
You can preview the output at any moment IF YOU USE THE CORRECT BARCODE FORMAT.
But printer should support barcode printing for taking printout. Otherwise in printout it will print junk values...
If you want to print bar codes from R/3 using device type HPLJ4, HPLJ5, HPLJ5SI or HPLJ4000 on HP LaserJet 4, 5, 6 or 4000 series printers, you need what is known as a SIMM module (IC card). This SIMM module is called "JetCAPS Intelligent Barcode SIMM" and can be obtained for most HP LaserJet 4, 5, 6 and Laser Jet 4000 printers. For more detailed information regarding barcode printers refer to Notes 5196, 121305, 119471
Hope this helps.

Print Bar code in Smart form

Hi,
Can you pls tell me how to print bar code in smart form?

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 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.

Generate bar codes in mail forms

Hi,
I know how to insert Bar codes in smartforms, but I need to print the bar codes in Mail Forms, is that possible?
Thanks a lot,
Nuno Moreira

Hi Gregor,
What I need to do is:
I have several mail forms treated as a standard response in ICWC. We are using the e-mail view (in ICWC) mainly to print the forms, via smartforms or in online mode without smartforms.
So, at the moment, I have two questions:
1) If I use a smartform to print the mail form, even if I create the form in plain text and create the bar code into mail form, when I print the number it is not converted in a bar code;
2) If I generate the bar code in a mail form and I try to print it in ICWC e-mail view the number is not printed as a bar code too;
Thanks a lot for your help and interest,
Best Regards,
Nuno

Error with EURO-character in pdf417 bar code with adobe forms

Hi,
we have a problem with the Euro-Sign (u20AC) in the bar code type pdf417. The encoding is set to "ISO-8859-15", but after creating the barcode and scan this, instead of the u20AC-character the ?-character appears. Is this a bug in the encoding-routine? Or have we to set some special parameters?
Can anybody help?
Thanks!

thanks for your reply, unfortunately the oss note doesn't solve the problem.

Thanks for ur reply.I need to find out some things.
My client wants to go for a barcoding software.The reason is he need not enter the id manually. So he wants to automate the process(Reading the ID using Barcode machine)
1.How a barcode machine/Software works?
2.WHere it stores the value?(i.e.., the value it reads)
3. What are the packages through which i can read these barcodes and then
contact the database for the purpose of getting the details related to it.

Smart forms with barcode

Hi Experts,
I have requirement to create bar code in smart form, the barcode format will be 39 full ASCII .
I have tried to create a character format with this font but it is not available in smartstyles.
Can you please help me how Can I create this and get into smartstyles ?
Thanks in advance...

run tcode SE73, create a new system barcode and select "New Barcode Technology". Then select the Code 39 Symbology.
As far as i know, SAP supports the full ASCII mode of the Code 39.
The difference between Code 39 and Code 39 full ASCII is that you are able to use for example uppercase and lowercase letters within your barcode.
Code 39 is restricted to 44 characters. In Full ASCII Code 39 Symbols 0-9, A-Z, "." ,and "-" are the same as their representations in Code 39. Lower case letters, additional punctuation characters and control characters are represented by sequences of two characters of Code 39. For example, if you want to use "a", you have to use the encoding "+A".
I hope, this helps you a bit.
regards
Ralf

How to Increase Bar Code width ?

Dear All,
I am printing a Bar code and I am getting its width depending upon size of data .
I am using CODE 128 and I am passing 854540008700547878 .
I want to fix the bar code width 9cm ..Currently I am using 6cm width and 150 height .
And If I increase the width more than 6cm then I got only charater 854540008700547878 not bar code.
Help wil be appriciated.
Regards
Steve

Hi ,
Create your own bar code type rather than using system Bar Codes , if the length of your code doesn't fit with the standards available under SE73 . There you can define your own sizes as per your requirement , If you have a stands logic ,for example production order type Z001 should be in 15 lengthy code , then put a condition in the smart form to facilitate it , like wise you could use different lengthy bar codes in single form .
I hope this is what you meant by your treat.
Good Luck .
Cheers ,
