Barcode Scanner Implementation

[Abdel Gadiel Martínez Lassonde]

Hi to everyone!

I would like to know if someone have used a barcode scanner with ERPNext? I mean like scanning a product barcode and that will make ERPNext look for an item on inventory, assign it to a new item on the inventory or functioning on the POS.

Thanks in advance.

Regards!

Hi Abdel. 

Essentially a barcode scanner is same as a keyboard. So pointing a cursor in the right field and scanning the barcode should work. But there is an additional barcode field that you can use to assign a barcode number to an item. 

to enable Barcode field in ERPNext:

Go to Setup / Customize / Show Hide Features, check Barcode and Save!

You will then find a barcode field in Item Table of Invoice.

Thanks,
