I already have a database with a list of items that are barcoded. I know how to create a barcode field in the app. When I try to upload data from a csv into my library, the barcode field is not found. Is there a specific format or way to present the barcode information so it uploads correctly? My barcodes have leading zeros which may be creating an issue?

Cheers!

Hallo
Ich sehe da 2 Möglichkeiten . 1 Es werde Keine Daten in der Feld " Barcode " eingetragen . 2. Die Eingetragenen Daten sind Falsch oder Werden nicht als Barcode angezeigt .

Hello
I see two possibilities. 1. No data is entered in the "Barcode" field. 2. The entered data is incorrect or is not displayed as a barcode.

Thanks for your reply. I have found the correct way to format the barcode information so it scans and searches correctly. I first created a local library with a database field. I scanned a barcode - my codes for example are 00007145. This is what is displayed in the field record. I had to then convert the codes in my csv file to match. The correct matching format is "00007145". This uploaded properly and is searchable using the camera barcode scanner within the app. Cheers.
