You do not need to create a barcode manually. By default, the system automatically uses the item's AssetID as the barcode. If you leave the barcode field blank, we automatically use the AssetID.

The format depends on the length of the AssetID:

• 20 characters or less: Creates a Standard Barcode (lines).

• More than 20 characters: Creates a QR Code (square).

• Scanning either format will identify the item by its AssetID.

Automatic Barcode Generation

If no custom barcode is set, the system generates one using the Asset ID:

| Asset ID Length | Resulting Format | Example |

| Short (≤ 20 chars) | Standard Barcode | INV-001 |

| Long (> 20 chars) | QR Code | WAREHOUSE-A-SHELF-12-BIN-4 |

| To use a different value, simply enter a Custom Barcode when editing the item.
