Use Barcode Scanning

Use Barcode Scanning

• A barcode is an optical machine-readable series
  of coded lines that help identify a product. The
  lines appear in one of several standard formats
  that are read and interpreted by a scanner. The
  scanner then converts the information it reads
  into a usable format (for example, item
  information entered on a item receipt).

Use barcode scanning

• One advantage of a barcode system is that a large
  amount of information can be coded into a small
  space. There are numerous sizes and types of
  barcodes, but within each there is an accepted
  formula for the layout of the lines and spaces
  according to international standards that
  identify the pattern or type of barcode that a
  scanner can be programmed to read.
• Some things that might affect the reading of a
  barcode are the size of the lines and spaces of
  the barcode image, whether the edges of the lines
  are sharp or smudged, whether the surface the
  scanner is reading is flat, curved, or uneven,
  and whether a scanner is designed to read the
  particular size of the barcode. QuickBooks
  Enterprise Solutions 14.0 only uses hand-held USB
  thin beam laser barcode scanners that read
  typical barcodes.

Set up, use and print barcodes

• Enable barcode Scanning
• Advanced Inventory's barcode feature
  incorporates barcodes and barcode scanning
  seamlessly into your company file. Turning on the
  barcode scanning preference in Advanced Inventory
  and using the Barcode Wizard gives you the option
  of either moving your existing barcodes into
  QuickBooks online Desktop into the new Barcode
  Number field for any or all of your items, or
  having QuickBooks Desktop create barcodes for
  items in your item list. You can also manually
  enter barcodes into the Barcode Number field
  through the Edit Item window. The barcode feature
  will automatically create barcode images for each
  of the barcodes entered. Once the barcodes are
  entered into your company file, you can use
  barcode scanning in most transactions.
