When printing forms it is possible to print a value as a barcode. SAPscript supports multiple barcode symbologies. For exampe, you print production orders to be used on the shop floor. You have specific confirmation points in the process. The shop floor users would scan the barcode of the production order number instead of typing it. You can implement barcodes in your sapscripts by using a specific character format which uses a barcode format. You some cases you may need special software or hardware for the printers to print the barcode. In our case, we use the hardware solution which is a DIMM card inside the printer.
