hi,

Currently on the picking list we have separate barcodes for Run#, Sales order# and Pick#. The users have to press enter carriage return(enter) everytime a barcode is scanned so that the next barcode can be scanned.
We intend to combine these three values into a single barcode so that in one scan it can populate all three values on reader.

Can any one suggest how that can be done?


Thanks in advance

You can also configure your barcode reader to do the enter automatically after a scan. But then still you need 3 scans.
Concatenating the 3 fields and print that as a barcode is not a problem, I suppose. Whether you can split them again after scanning depends on the software that runs on your handheld device. If you pass the complete scanned string to Baan 3GL again, you can easily split them there.

Hi Jaap,

Thanks for the reply.

Will this work?
I have added enter are carriage return between the individual parts
single.barcode = strip$(shiftl$(whinh225.btno)) & chr$(13) & whinh225.orno & chr$(13) & strip$(shiftl$(str$(whinh225.picm)))

That depends on the barcode type and the scanner (application).

Hello,
Built your barcode as :

barcode = Run#order#Pick

Scan into a field of an AFS-session form and separate (something like string.scan), fill the fields at target session with AFS.

Hi All,

Thanks for your suggestions.

It seems that strip$(shiftl$(whinh225.btno)) & chr$(13) & whinh225.orno & chr$(13) & strip$(shiftl$(str$(whinh225.picm))) is not combining the barcodes into a single barcode.
Will combinig with a # result in a single barcode and will the scanner be able to detect three seperate barcodes from this and populate them in RF gun?
