Hi,

check this link

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/68/4a0d5b74110d44b1b88d9b6aa1315b/content.htm

You create a bar code or change a bar code in the font maintenance transaction (transaction SE73). To do this, proceed as follows:

¡ Start transaction SE73, and choose System Bar Codes ® Change.

¡ If you create a bar code, the system asks whether you want to use the new bar code technology or traditional system bar codes. Choose New.

You can enter a name and a description for the bar code. Note that the name must begin with a Z to avoid conflict between your bar codes and the standard bar codes.

¡ You are asked which bar code symbology and which bar code alignment is to be used, both when creating and when changing bar codes. For information about what you should specify for the requested parameters, see the SAP Note 645158 in the SAP Service Marketplace. This SAP Note is always kept up-to-date.

2. If you have created a new bar code, you must now add this to a Smart Style as a character format.

3. You can now select text in Smart Forms and choose the corresponding style with the bar code as the character format for this text.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Sonika

Hi,

After printing of the barcode , there is a scanner which scans and reads the barcode . For that no need of coding is required, that depends on scanner that reads the barcode.

For printing the barcode, u just have to take the character format for that characters as barcode that u will define in the smartform as i have earlier mentioned the steps from SE73.

Just try thses steps and revert back if u stilll have any doubt.
