Item Barcode One Off Report: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:13, 21 December 2023

The Item Barcode One Off report is similar to the Barcode report and the Item Barcode Label report. Just like those two, it doesn’t have column headers or anything like that. All it has on it are barcodes for all of your items in a specific format. When you first open this report, it will be blank because you need to select a label format to display every item’s barcode in.

←Back to list of reports

Once you do that and click the GENERATE REPORT button, you will see that each barcode has an item name under it. This isn’t limited by the type of item. Inventory, Non Inventory, Shipping, Bundle, Service, Labor, and Overhead items will all receive barcodes.

Optional

On the right of the report, you will find several Optional features to customize the barcodes that are displayed:

Labels - A dropdown menu to select a label format to generate barcodes in. There are eight options:
- 2” x 1” labels
- 2” x 1.25” labels
- 2” x 1.1875” labels
- 2” x 3” labels
- 3” x 1.75” labels
- 4” x 2” labels
- 4” x 3” labels
- 4” x 6” labels
Item - A dropdown menu to narrow down the report to a barcode for the selected item. By default, you will see barcodes for all items, but this lets you focus in on just one item, excluding all others. You can create a new item by entering a name for the item in the textbox and hitting Enter or clicking the + Add option. Then fill out the New Item wizard that pops up.
Count - A textbox to enter the number of copies of each barcode to include in the report. By default, the number of copies will be 1, but you can enter 2, 3, etc. to multiply the barcode count by that number.
Produced From Type - A dropdown menu to limit the barcodes displayed by their source. There are three fields from the General tab of the Items module you can choose from to determine which barcodes are included in the report:
- Name - The name of each item. This is the default field used for this report. Since all items have a name, they will all be included.
- Barcode/UPC - The universal product code for each item. This field isn’t required, so not every item might have one.
- SKU - The stock-keeping unit number for each item. This field isn’t required, so not every item might have one.
Show Description - A checkbox that adds each item’s description under its name on the report. If there is no description in the Items module, nothing will appear.
Show Price - A checkbox that adds each item’s price above its barcode on the report. This can be helpful for labeling items that will be sold to customers.
Show UPC - A checkbox that adds each item’s universal product code under its barcode on the report. Of course, this only applies to items that have a UPC in the Items module.

To select all of the status fields at once, click the Select All Optional checkbox. The Select All Optional checkbox won’t affect any of the dropdown menus or textboxes under the Optional header. Those will have to be updated manually. To search for an option in a dropdown menu, click in that field and begin entering text. It will show all options that have that text in them.

To apply your changes and see what they look like in the report, click the GENERATE REPORT button on the bottom-right. And follow the directions at the top of the main Reports article to save your changes to a Preset.
