Regarding barcodes

Hi All,
How to print SCC-14 and UCC-128 barcodes through SAP Smartforms?

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.

Query regarding Barcoding in Inventory

Hi,
Can anyone let me know whether we can capture or track EAN 13-digit number in Oracle Inventory.If so which is the table which contains this field information in Inventory.
The Item number is generated by the system automatically and the cleint want to capture the EAN13 digit code during all transaction.Client wants to use Barcode scanning during item receiving and other all transactions.
Will Inventory alone support this barcode scanning?
FYI, the cleint does not have WMS or MSCA implemented.
Any pointers will be of immense help.
Regards,
Bala.

what you print on what basis is just dependend what you would like to say with the label.
What do you like to show with the barcode? the material number? the purchase order number, or the material document number?
if you would like to lable each item e.g. you order 20000 kg of a chemical packed in 200 kg drums, then you probably need 100 labels, dont you?

Regarding Barcode Type....

Hi friends...
     How can I get the information about the attributes of different barcode types   used in Smartforms?
Kindly Suggest me the solution for this query???
Points will be rewarded to the useful answer...
Thanx,
Rahul.

Hi Rahul,
You can use barcodes types already created or you can create new one if
these types does not satisfy you requirement.
If you create a new system bar code for the "new bar code technology" in transaction SE73, you must specify the following parameters:
Bar code name (used in Smart Styles)
Short text for system bar code (documentation)
Bar code symbology:
    Code39
    Code128
    Interleaved 2of5
    PDF417
    Code93
This selection determines the technical bar code type that is used to format the bar code data (also called bar code symbology). The symbology also determines which characters are allowed in the bar code data.
Bar code alignment:
Normal (that is, the scan direction is "from left to right")
Rotated (the scan direction is rotated by 90 degrees "from top to bottom")
Inverted (the scan direction is rotated by 180 degrees "from right to left")
Bottom-up (the scan direction is rotated by 270 degrees "from bottom to top")
Code39 ******************
Code39 is an alphanumeric code that can represent the following characters in the bar code data:
Numbers:        1234567890
Capital letters: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Special characters: - . $ / + %
Blank characters (space characters)
The start and stop character for the Code39 bar code is usually represented by an asterix (*) in the text view of the bar code data (also called "human-readable text" or "interpretation line").
Parameters for Code39:
Narrow module width
Value range: 1 to 10
This is the width for the narrowest module of a bar code, measured in pixels. It controls the width of the bar code. Value 1 generates the "narrowest", value 10 the widest bars or spaces.
Linear height
Value range: 1 to 9999
Controls the height of the bars of the bar code, measured in pixels. A value of 600 is equal to a height of one inch.
Mod-43 check digit
Value range: X equals YES, blank character equals No
With this indicator, you can determine whether a Modulo-43 check digit is to be generated.
Bar ratio
Value range: 20 to 30
This value controls the ratio between wide and narrow bars. This value controls the ratio between wide and narrow bars.Value 20 means a ratio of 2.0:1, value 30 means a ratio of 3.0 to 1 (that is, 3:1).
Parameters for Interleaved 2of5:
Narrow module width
Value range: 1 to 10
This is the width for the narrowest module of a bar code, measured in pixels. It controls the width of the bar code. Value 1 generates the "narrowest", value 10 the widest bars or spaces.
Linear height
Value range: 1 to 9999
Controls the height of the bars of the bar code, measured in pixels. A value of 600 is equal to a height of one inch.
Mod-10 check digit
Value range: X equals YES, blank character equals No
With this indicator, you can determine whether a Modulo-10 check digit is to be generated.
Bar ratio
Value range: 20 to 30
This value controls the ratio between wide and narrow bars. This value controls the ratio between wide and narrow bars.Value 20 means a ratio of 2.0:1, value 30 means a ratio of 3.0 to 1 (that is, 3:1).
Code 128 *****************
Code128 is an alphanumeric code that can encode three different character sets. Each of the three character sets can represent 106 different characters. Within a bar code, you can alternate between the character sets.
The three Code128 character sets are named as follows:
Subset A) (contains, for example, digits, capital letters and control characters)
Subset B) (contains, for example, digits, uppercase and lowercase letters)
Subset C) (digit pairs from 00 to 99)
Parameters for Code128:
Narrow module width
Value range: 1 to 10
This is the width for the narrowest module of a bar code, measured in pixels. It controls the width of the bar code. Value 1 generates the "narrowest", value 10 the widest bars or spaces.
Linear height
Value range: 1 to 9999
Controls the height of the bars of the bar code, measured in pixels. A value of 600 is equal to a height of one inch.
Code128 mode
Value range: N (default value), A, U
In default mode N (None), the Code128 bar code works in subset B. If you want to switch to another subset, you must trigger the change explicitly with a control command ("invocation code") in the bar code data.
In mode A (automatic), the software analyzes the transferred bar code data and recognizes automatically which subset is the most adequate for the bar code data. Subsets are swapped automatically in the bar code data. A sequence of four or more digits initiates an automatic change in subset C.
In mode U (UCC case mode), you must transfer 19 digits in the bar code data. Subset C is set automatically and an FNC1 character is added as prefix.
Note: If fewer than 19 digits are transferred, the bar code is filled with zeros to the left until it contains 19 digits.
UCC check digit
Value range: X equals YES, blank character equals No
Note: This parameter has no effect becaues Code128 always generates a check digit, even in UCC mode. The parameter will be removed in the future.
Code93 is an alphanumeric code that can represent the following characters directly in the bar code data:
Numbers:        1234567890
Capital letters: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Special characters: - . $ / + %
Blank characters (space characters)
The start and stop characters in the Code93 bar code are represented as # sign in the text view of the bar code data (also called "human-readable text" or "interpretation line").
Parameters for Code93:
Narrow module width
Value range: 1 to 10
This is the width for the narrowest module of a bar code, measured in pixels. It controls the width of the bar code. Value 1 generates the "narrowest", value 10 the widest bars or spaces.
Linear height
Value range: 1 to 9999
Controls the height of the bars of the bar code, measured in pixels. A value of 600 is equal to a height of one inch.
Check digit
Value range: X equals YES, blank character equals No
With Code93 bar codes, a pair of check digits is always used and is always generated in the bar code. This parameter has no effect.
PDF417 is a two-dimensional bar code to represent datasets that are larger as the usual datasets in one-dimensional bar codes (for example, more than 1,000 characters). The entire 7-Bit ASCII character set is generally processed (binary values 1 - 127, the value 0 is not permitted).
A PDF417 bar code consists of 3 to 90 consecutive rows. Every row consists of a start/stop indicator and "code words". A code word consists of 4 bars and 4 spaces. The minimum number of code words per row is three.
Parameters for PDF417:
Narrow module width
Value range: 1 to 10
This is the width for the narrowest module of a bar code, measured in pixels. Value 1 generates the "narrowest", value 10 the widest bars or spaces.
Linear height
Value range: 1 to 9999
This parameter currently has no effect on PDF417. The height of a PDF417 symbol is controlled by parameter "Single Row Height" and the number of columns and rows, in conjunction with the length of text data to be encoded.
Single row height
Value range: 1 to 32000
This value, multiplied by the narrow module width, returns the height of the individual rows of a PDF417 symbol, measured in pixels. Caution: Do NOT use the value 1 for this parameter
Security level
Value range: 0, 1-8
This parameter controls the number of code words that are generated for error recognition and error correction. The default value 0, however, only permits error recognition but no automatic correction. If you increase the security level, the level of error correction increases with it (this increases the size of the bar code).
Number of columns
Here, you can define the number of the code word columns which you can use to check the width of the bar code.
Value range:
0 (default value) : A row/column ratio of 1:2 is used.
Permitted values: 1 to 30
Number of rows
Here, you can define the number of rows which can be used to check the height of the bar code.
Value range:
0 (default value) : A row/column ratio of 1:2 is used.
Permitted values: 3 to 90
For example: If you leave both parameters set to the default value 0, the system would convert 72 code words in a bar code symbol with 6 columns and 12 rows.
Truncation
Value range: X equals YES, blank character equals No
This indicator determines if the right row indicator and the stop pattern are to be truncated (this saves space).
The following character combinations in the transferred bar code data have the special function:
\&    - This represents the end of a line (Carriage Return + Newline)
    - This represents a backslash (5C hexadecimal)
\0xYY - This represents a single byte with the value YY (hexadecimal)
        For example: \0x1E is output as a single byte with the value 1E (hex)
        or 30 (decimal).
The souce for this information is OSS Note 645128.
Still if u face any problem feel free to ask.

Need detail information regarding Barcode Integration with SAP

Hi All,
Wanted to know the steps in integrating SAP system with the existing barcode reader. I need to know how to read and attatch the barcode reader and how to process the barcode. It will also be helpful if relevant documents are supplied.

If I'm understand your question correctly, you want to send the order you receive on your web to the manufacturer. Then manufacturer will create a sales order and delivery order on their side and deliver the good to the clinic.
In this case,
1,2) It would be better for you to send the order to them instead of creating the wsdl for them to call. There is a standard format EDI for sales order that SAP use to interface with legacy system. You cna generate the data in this format and send to each manufacturer so they can configure the system on their side.
3) The module is called SAP order fullfillment or SAP order-to-cash or SAP SD (Sales & distribution). It means the same thing just some people call it differnetly. SAP SD is the common one.
4) Surely there will be some effort for each manufacture to integrate their system with you. However, If you use the standard EDI, the effort would be minimal for the manufaturer that already implement this with other partner.
5) you can pass along the address in sales order. If the manufacturer system implemented SAP SD, they should be able to create sales order, delivery order and invoice from their side.

Confirm picking quantity by barcode scanning

Hi All,
We have generated the Delivery Document w.r.t. Order in Sales Order Processing. Our requirement is that during picking, the confirmation of the pick quantity must happen by scanning the Barcode (EAN No.) on the article directly into the delivery document.
Does any body have an idea on how to do this ?
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi,
I think you want to enter picking by enabling barcode reading, Yes by SAP you can do it.
For information regarding barcode integeration please refer to sap Note 945906

HG282DJ scalable barcode font card in HP Laserjet 400 M401dn not detected

Hello, We have recently bought an HP laserjet 400 M401dn. We quickly realized this printer did not print any barcodes so we purchased an HG282DJ scalable barcode DIMM card. Unfortunately, after installing it in the printer and testing it, it still did not print the barcodes. I have installed it the way it showed me on the HP installation process. (shut down the printer, unplug all cables from the printer, plug the DIMM card, replug cables and turn on the printer). It then suggested me to print a PCL Font List which, unfortunately, did not include the barcodes font list. I then connected directly on the printer's web interface on the Home tab - config page where it says "DIMM 1"...it shows "Empty" is the card faulty or do I need to install an additional software for this to work? I thought this was pretty much Plug-And-Play. Thank you.

Hi, Is your firmware update for HP Laserjet 400 M401dn compatible with M401a, we are still having the same issue regarding barcode printing , and I can't find where to download the firmware update for our HP Laserjet 400 M401a. My printer's Firmware Datecode is 20140521. Any help from you will very much appreciated. Thanks and regards

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.

Regarding Printing problem in SMARTFORMS (BarCode)

Dear All
I am trying to print a barcode using SMART FORMS.
In SPAD , some standard printers are there. But I am trying to print the output in HP DeskJet 3050 , which is not in the list. And one more , I am able to print the ABAP List from SAP , but not the SMARTFORMS only.
Because when I see the SP01 , SMARTFORMS o/p are in the OTF format.
Or any other setting missing

Hi all
I got the answer.
In transaction SPAD,for the output device you are using check the values entered for fields "Host spool access method" & "Host Printer".
If the method is "F-printing on frontend", then the expected value for the Host Printer is "__default"
