PDF417 2D Barcode - Use in Smartform

Hello,
I have created a 2D barcode using symbyology PDF417, and also created a character format for this which i can use in my smartform. My problem here is that i am not clear of how i can use this barcode in the smartform when i use it in the text field.
I have to put in the data for material number and serial number in this barcode.
Can someone please help out in this. I have even checked SDN for this topic but with no satisfying answers.
Regards,
Rasika

Hi,
Create a style Character "Z1" in smartform txn. and assign ur 2D barcode font in it.
In smartform under your text window you do as follows.
for example you want to show this field &IS_SERNR&&IS_MATNR& as Barcode, then you select completely this field &IS_SERNR&&IS_MATNR& and then select "Z1" character from the deopdown under general attributes tab.
or change the Editor and assin as follows < z1 >&IS_SERNR&&IS_MATNR&< / >
Also refer this image http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/download/attachments/202279604/2dbarcode.JPG

thanks and regards
fareeda

Hi Fareeda,
To print a barcode in a smart form,you need to create a character format for the barcode.
TO create a character format,you need to do it in SMARTSTYLES tcode.
Follow these steps:
Go to the SMARTSTYLES tcode.
Give a name to your style and create it.
Give a description and save it.
On the left hand side of the window,you will find character formats.
Click on it and press F5.
Give a name to the character format and select OK.
Give a description for the character format and save it.
There you will find a tab by name General Settings.In that Tab you will find BarCode.
Select any one of the style for the barcode as per your requirement.This is the name of the barcode.
Now save the character format and activate the samrtstyle.
To use the bar code in the form,follow these steps:
now in the window,you will find a tab by name OUTPUT OPTIONS.Ther give the name of the style same as the name that you have created in the SMARTSTYLES.
In the text element window,Select the character format that you have created in the smartstyles.
Now in the text elements of the window, type the field name for which you want to print the bar code in the following way to print the bar code:
&<work area/table name >-<field name>&

The bracodes are not displayed properly.
If I test the same system barcode in SE73 it displayed properly.
Is there anyother settings are necessory?
Plz help me in solving the peoblem

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.

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.

Hi Rama,
We are working to print Bar codes using Smart forms.
Barcode is printing in label (4*6 Inchs) using printer (Zebra Z4 M PLUS (300 DPI)) (TLP-3842) which supports ZPL Language and Device type is ZLZEB3 (300 DPI).
We are printing bar codes successfully.
But After testing bar code using bar code tester (BC TESTER 4.4) software tool.
The results are failed.
We are expecting results: Like bellow.
Value formatted type is: EAN
Value is [C142007470
Total Description:   420. Ship To-Deliver to Postal Code a Single Postal Authority 07470
Current Situation:
Here we are Created Bar code (Ship to Post) in SE73 with
Bar code type is: Code 128
Width is: 08
Height: 300
Mode is: A    (Even I tried with N and U)
UCC check: Empty.
I added this to character format in my Smart forms.
Text in smart form is: ,,,,<C2>&W_POSTAL_CODE&</>    for P1 Paragraph.
Using this functionality we are able to print a Bar code in Label.
But while testing using BC Tester
Values are showing:
Value formatted type is: EAN
Value is 42007470
Total Description Values: Empty
The Type is EAN is when we select the Manually EAN Radio button (but this not capturing automatically this is problem we are facing).
Even I tried with some changes like bellow:
But Forcefully writing some code in Program lines Smartform:
               concatenate '420' fs_zediu017-pstlz into w_postal_code
After this forcefully adding this Value [C1 in Before W_postal_code Element text :
Text in smart form is:        ,,,,<C2>[C1&W_POSTAL_CODE&</>    for P1 Paragraph.
After this we are tested using BC tester
Every thing is displaying correct Vales which mention above when we manually select the Value formatted type radio button EAN but this Wrong.
Client need when testing bar code using BC TESTER 4.4 it should be display to take EAN radio button and showing all the Values.
Please let me know if you get any idea on this ?
Thanks,
Bathini.

Printing QR-Code barcodes in SAP smartforms

Hi,
Is it possible to print QR-Code barcodes in SAP smartforms using system barcode font? Can anybody please let me know the font settings for QR-Code in SE73 font maintenance?
A sample QR-Code lablel can be found [here|http://images.orkut.com/orkut/albums2/ATUAAADhaahG5MxsqQ66lcSO9oHRWD3X8zh7yv1kEakKwMtVHchChN1WfZlM__2D0_o8H7AS4_UaTTCymQQtvXHb9-q3AJtU9VCWnzkZ4gC1sVnCekVuQ90qmhzeMw.jpg].

Hi Milan,
I'll blog in SDN about my research that I presented at TechEd during session CD119 (blog) but I'll begin sharing with you some ideas.
Basically, without relay on any printer specific driver I would propose to follow the following steps:
1.Generate the QR Code image file (.PNG) with one of the methods presented in the following pages
2.Upload the image into the SAP system
2.1 Convert the generated file (file.png) to TIFF using SAP IGS class CL_IGS_IMAGE_CONVERTER (see GRAPHICS_IGS_IMGCONV_DEMO)
2.2.Upload. Use report RSTXLDMC to upload the image into SE78
3.Include the image into the Form:
3.1.SAPScript/:INCLUDE ZHEX-MARCO-name OBJECT TEXT ID ST
If everything is clear, the missing point should now be the first one. To generate the PNG from ABAP I found some options if you like, the better I think is presented in my open source project called abap2qrcode published here http://code.google.com/p/abap2qrcode/.
I know it's not trivial and I'm curious to know what do you think about it.

2 of 5 barcode printing in Smartforms

Hi,
I am printing a 2 of 5 barcode on my smartform. When reading it using the barcode reader, I have an extra "0" showing at the beginning of the value. The extra zero is not showing on the human readable value. This is not the check digit as in the barcode font set up, I have removed the same.
E.g. if my value is 0123456789 stored in a type NUMC of 10, I am getting 0123456789 printed beneath the barcode but the barcode reader shows 00123456789, i.e. a total of 11 characters.
Could anyone tell me the reason behind this and what the solution could be?
Thanks and best regards,
Prem

Hi,
In standard bar code BC_125 zero will be prefixed to the value you print as bar code.
Create a custom barcode as below
se73->select system bar codes->change->click on create
select new bar code technology->enter new bar code ZBC_125 and description->continue
select Interleaved 2of5->continue->select normal->continue
In the screen of Interleaved 2of5 parameters set 'Mod-10 Check Digit' to blank value->continue and save the bar code.
Now select your custom bar code and test barcode(F6).
This will resolve your problem.

Barcode using sapscript

Hi,
I am able to print barcode using laser printer. Does it mean that the RF gun will be able to read it?

Hi Pankaj,
Barcode is a special type of marking to identify the item and its price.
and this is a special marking which is basically used to read the Barcode Reader only.
We cannot or any other item will not be able to read the barcode. Only Barcode reader can only read.

I am in the process of trying to configure the output determination for a billing document to use a SMARTFORM. Has anyone ever done this, and what fields in the proceesing routines of the output types do I need to populate.

Welcome to SDN.
You can use the following in processing routine for application V3 (Billing) in transaction code V/40.
- Medium = 1 (Print Output) or 2 (Fax)
- Program = RLB_INVOICE
- Form Routine = ENTRY
- SmartForm = LB_BIL_INVOICE
Hope this will help.
