The barcode scanning features can save you a lot of time usually lost
|
||||
switching between the keyboard, the mouse and the scanner. Properly
|
||||
attributing barcodes to products, pickings locations, etc. allows you to
|
||||
work more efficiently by controlling the software almost exclusively
|
||||
with the barcode scanner.
|
||||
|
||||
Set products barcodes
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: media/software01.png
|
||||
To use this feature, you first need to activate the *Barcode*
|
||||
functionality via *Inventory > Settings > Barcode Scanner*. Once you
|
||||
have ticked the feature, you can hit save.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
In order to fill a picking or to perform an inventory, you need to make
|
||||
sure that your products are encoded in Odoo along with their barcodes.
|
||||
If this is not already done, you can fill in the products barcodes
|
||||
through a handy interface. Go to
|
||||
:menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Settings`
|
||||
and click :menuselection:`Operations --> Barcode Scanner`.
|
||||
Click Save, and go back into the previous screen to click Configure
|
||||
Product Barcodes. This interface can also be accessed via the planner.
|
||||
Set Product Barcodes
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
You can easily assign barcodes to your different products via the
|
||||
*Inventory* app. To do so, go to *Settings > Configure Products
|
||||
Barcodes*.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Then, you have the possibility to assign barcodes to your products
|
||||
directly at creation on the product form.

|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
Product variants: be careful to add barcodes directly on the
|
||||
variant, and not the template product (otherwise you won't be able to
|
||||
differentiate them).

If you manage multiple locations, you will find useful to attribute a
|
||||
barcode to each location and stick it on the location. You can configure
|
||||
the locations barcodes in
|
||||
:menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Warehouse Management --> Locations`.
|
||||
There is button in the **Print** menu that you
|
||||
can use to print the locations names and barcodes. There are 4 barcodes
|
||||
per page, arranged in a way that is convenient to print on sticker
|
||||
paper.
|
||||
the locations barcodes in *Inventory > Configuration > Locations*.
|
||||
|
||||
Example of location naming: **warehouse short name** - **location short
|
||||
name** - (**Corridor X** - **Shelf Y** - **Height Z**) Example: A032-025-133

You can easily print the barcode you allocate to the locations via the
|
||||
*Print* menu.

Barcode Formats
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Most retail products use EAN-13 barcodes. They cannot be made up without
|
||||
proper authorization: you must pay the International Article Numbering
|
||||
Association a fee in exchange for an EAN code sequence (that's why no
|
||||
two products in a store will ever have the same EAN code).

proper authorization. You must pay the International Article Numbering

Association a fee in exchange for an EAN code sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
Still, as Odoo supports any string as a barcode, so you can always
|
||||
define your own barcode format for internal use.
