To generate barcode for material using the identifiers >8 241 >5 but while scanning its working for numeric material and not working for alpha numeric material. Could you please let us know identifiers for alpha numeric materials.

Regards

If i understood well, your material numer is

>8 241 >5 

And you want to print it but your RF scanner cannot read it, right?
Did you set up the scanner to read the Barcode Type (3of9, 128....) you use to print it?

Hi Milesi,

I am using EAN128 format . While scanning alphanumeric material getting the result as U*123456 . I am able to scan the alphanumeric batch but not able to scan the alphanumeric material. For the batch I have used the identifier as 10 . Do you know identifier to scan the alphanumeric material.

Ok, but EAN128 can have 3 different subsets and not all of them handle alphanumeric strings.

If you are using Subset C, with UCC, anything not number it's stripped away.

That >5>8 reminds me a ZPL command, am i right?

If so, remove it, leave just the ^FD and the Zebra firmware will take care of handle the correct EAN128 type

Hi Milesi,

Thanks for your response .

My material is ls_matnr = 10000 and batch is ls_charg = B123.To generate barcode used the following code and it working when ls_matnr is 10000 but when ls_matnr is F0002 then scanner giving the result as 0002. My question is instead of using below identifiers what we have to use to scan alphanumeric material.

CONCATENATE '>8' '241' '>5' ls_matnr
'>8' '10' '>6' ls_charg INTO gv_code.

Then it means you are using a wrong type of barcode accepting only numberic values (ie. Interleaved 2 of 5 )

Here you can find the different type of barcodes https://barcode-labels.com/getting-started/barcodes/types/

What are you using to create the barcode? A string?
