Bar Codes for Transfer Order

Hi,

I am able to print the BAR CODE for transfer order using BARCLVS.

<BC>&RLDRU-TALGN&</> eg: TALGN holds 0000000158201.

But when i scan it i should get the transferorder number and press tab or enter and i should get warehouse number.

Is there any other bar code with which i can do this.

Please suggest.

Well, it really depends on the scanner itself. Most scanners allow you to configure an "Auto-Enter". Where when a barcode is scanned, the scanner automatically hits ENTER. In all of our programs and scanners this is the case. The user scans the barcode, the auto-enter hits enter which triggers a PAI on the application side. I get some data specific to the barcode scanned and bring back the data to the screen. What scanner devices are you using. Is it ok to hit Enter as opposed to TAB. If you need to TAB to the next field, you will still need to trigger a PAI by hitting enter or using the Auto-enter, you can handle the TAB in the ABAP program itself, but using GET CURSOR and SET CURSOR, but if you are using a standard SAP program, it may be an issue, since you would have to hack it.

No, nothing in the barcode, just some config in the scanner. What scanners are you using to scan the barcode?

Ok, then the scanner should have come with some guide of user manual or guide or something. In this guide there should be some configuration barcodes. Maybe something that says postamble. What is the model of the scanner, I can check out the Symbol website for some documentations. We use intermec, and they are configuarable, where we can specify that the scanner hits ENTER after it scans a barcode.
