Bearer bars for bar code in sapscript

Hello,
I have a bar code to be printed with bearer bars. Bearer bars are lines on the top of a bar code. Using se73 i had created a bar code and it is printing fine. However, I am not sure of the approach to be used for bearer bars. Or is some special dll required to achieve this functionality. Is it something to do with the bar code type. Has anybody before worked on the same. Can anybody share his experience.
Regards,
Shekhar Kulkarni

There are fonts for barcodes, u can use these fonts.
U can set these fonts in paragraph format, if required font is not availible, u can add ur own font and use it.

Printing tab in Bar Code using SAPScript

Hi,
We are trying to print information from multiple fields in Bar code (using Code128 symbology) on our Utility Invoices, printing of which is done using SAPScript.
Our objective is that when accepting payment using FPCJ transaction, the Cash Desk Operator will use a Bar Code Scanner and import relevant invoice data into multiple fields.
However, for that to happen, it is necesary to print tab feeds between data of contiguous fields using Bar code.
We have tried printing tab feeds in Bar Code using hexadecimal '09'. But it has not helped. Can anybody suggest how one can print tab feeds in Bar Code using SAPScript?
Thanks in advance,
Arijit Mitra

Hi
See the doc related to BARCODE printing and do accordingly
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.

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.

Bar codes (Smartforms vs. Sapscript)

Hello,
I need to print sapscript bar code on every kind of printers, is it possible in sapscript? I found out solution only for certain printer. I know I can do this in smartform, but there is completed sapscript form and customer requests upgrade this sapscript form with bar code. Sapscript migration to smartform is too expensive (print program has 4 000 lines of code).
Why smartform can print bar code on every printer and sapscript not? Does smartform convert print code to picture or what? Does anybody know how to convert bar code into picture in sapscript?
Best regards,
Josef Motl

Sapsctipt can not convert bar code to pdf. The implementation of bar codes in sapscript seems to cause too much difficulty to SAP developpers and they tend to put their efforts into smart forms.
Look at the following notes for the idea
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/430887PDF conversion: bar codes are not supported
we asked for help in Sapscropt and their only answer was https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/706743 Corrections for New Barcode Technology for Smart Forms

Hi,
these are BarCode specific Printcodes.
Usually they are designed for one kind of BarCode on one kind of printer.
Therefore it is likely not possibe to copy these codes for other barcode / printer combinations.

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.

hi!!!!!!!!!!!
to print barcodes in sapscripts you have to do following steps..
1.choose Character format options
2. Then choose change mode.
3. provide a name say C1 in character format option and then press enter.
4.provide description for that character format say C1.
5.you can find barcode option.place the cursor in that one and press F4 then it will display the list of barcodes available.
6.choose one of them say BC_MSIC.
Now you have created a character format say C1 with the Barcode properties.
Exmaple:
If you want to print the price in barcode format which is in ITAB-Netwr, you have to give the syntax in the script editor like ....
<C1>&ITAB-NETWR&</>
then it will prints barcode in your output....

Bar Code Sample Example for Usage in Smarform

Dear Experts,
We are trying to print the barcode on the Manufacturing Sheet and should contain the PART code, Serial Number and the Mfg. Date embeded in the bar code.
Can somebody share the sample Bar Code Example for Usage in Smarforms.
I never got a chance to work on such development. We are getting different answers from our development partner and sould like to excersize this on my own.
Appreciate your help
Regards,
Ravati

Hi Ravati, It's simple!!
Follow the example below for printing barcode in smartform .
There are some SAP standard barcodes(for ex.ARTNR,AUFNR ..etc) and also we can create our own barcode for it by using transaction code SE73.
1. Steps for using existing barcode in Smartform
For Printing Barcode in Smartform, you need to have the style with barcode active in it. So define new style where the standard settings should define the barcode that you want to use in the smartform.
For example, For product information display I use the Style as ZMFG_BARCODE.
Create paragraph & character format as "P1 - Product Description". In standard setting of character format P1, select the standard or custom defined barcode. This will ensure the printing of Product Information in Barcode format.
Now Create Smartform with output options specifying style name which you have created with Barcode active.
Complete your smartform coding, and when you want to display the information in barcode, concatinate all the required information and enclose that text in character format like,
for Product Code assuming the technical field name as mara-matnr, it should be printed as below:
<P1>&mara-matnr&</>
2. Steps to create new barcode using SE73 - SAPScript Font Maintenance.
In SE73, Select radio button "System barcode" to create new barcode. While creation of this barcode, you have to describe the new barcode, select technology new, barcode symbology and barcode alignment.
You may also chage the barcode parameter if required.
Now follow the same steps to implement this new barcode.
Hope this will help you.

Pravin

To create barcode go to transaction se73 Then System Bar codes.
There are some barcodes already present.
If they solve your purpose,use them otherwise create new ones.
The main characteristics of barcodes are
1) Min. Char
2)Max Char
3)Width
4)Height
Now in your sapscript create a character format.
There you can see an option to select barcode.
From there select the appropriate type.
Now use this character format for the field you want to display the barcode.

Bar Code Scanning for Windows Phone 8.1

Hi,
I need to find proper way how to scan bar codes in Windows Phone 8.1 or in universal app. I found out that there is native class BarcodeScanner available only for client apps and not for WP. I also find 3rd party library zxing.net, which is not working very
well on WP 8.1. I have done really deep research, but I have not found any single working solution for WP 8.1, so I would like to ask for your help in finding of library with which I will be able to scan barcodes on WP 8.1.
Thank you.

If you don't need a universal App you could build a Silverlight 8.1 App and use the old Camera APIs which work nicely with ZXing.Net. I have done so myself.
As for Windows 8 and Universal Apps - you would have to implement a CustomSink for the Video Stream, extract Frames from there and pipe those though a recognition library. So far there seems to be no ready made solution that offers this.
So right now using the old APIs would be my suggestion.

SAPScript bar code output in PDF format

Hi,
I am working in 4.6D. I am trying to get the zip code bar code symbol to display in PDF as Postnet. When it displays at this point it has the numeric code that would trigger the simm module on a printer to print the corresponding bar code symbol. I need to get this to display in the PDF document as well. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this in SAPScript?
Any help or suggestions well be greatly appreciated.

Document types for late entry using bar code

Hi,
We want to enable bar codes for Delivery document types for late
archiving.
We got the same for slaes order type in below mentioned path
SPRO --> Sales and Distribution --> Data transfer and Archiving -->
Assign document type --> Document types for late entry using bar code
or Transaction code VNOP.
We want similar transaction for delivery document type i.e. LF also so
that we can assign archive document type for the same.
Thanks,
Preethish

Hi Alex,
For Character devices, you have to use SAPConsole.
For GUI devices if you want to use online, it should be ITSMobile(Earlier this was WebSAPConsole).
Thanks.
