Hi, Anitha,

The scanner is just a input device, same as your keyboard.

when you scan barcode, the value will directly show on the editor or input box anything can be editable.

Archer

There are a couple of third-party tools which can directly read the data from the barcode and you can use it in the ABAP program.

Alternatively create a dialog screen. USe the barcode scanner and get the data as an input parameter and based on the input parameter do what ever validation you require and then based on the output of the validation trigger your relevant processing.

Hi Anitha,

In SAP you can use special data type for barcode from Smartforms transaction. That special bar-code charracter you can use from Style and attach to the your table field.

Thanks,
