Printing Production Order Number In Barcode With WO As Suffix

[RahF]

Hello Experts

I am trying to add a bar code field to the production order PLD

What I am trying is, I need the letters WO suffixed in front of the production order number

I've done the below but when I go to save it

I am getting an error

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong???

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

Save WO in one text fields and then concat these 2 fields i.e

Concat(F_000 ,F_017) then save

Thanks & Regards ,

Hi Kamlesh

Thanks for the reply

I did what you have advised

I created another text field as WO and then concat the two fields

But when I use a RF gun to scan the bar code it doesn't recognise it

There are only two options in the Barcode standard and I've tried both and it doesn't recognise either

We use the Accellos WMS

Thanks and Regards

Hi Frank

Thanks for that

I tried the bar code reader on my smart phone and it reads it

But for some reason the RF scanner guns don't recognise it

We use the DATALOGIC SKORPIO guns

Is there a way to get SAP to use code128 as the Bar Code standard???

Thanks and Regards

Standard B1 doesn't carry code 128, so u have implement your own.

I did this in crystal report, but not in PLD.

Code 128 support A, B, C schema. Depending on ur actual usage, u might narrow down to choose one of them instead of using all of them for full barcode length optimization.

Hi Frank

Changing over to crystal report will be a big change

Don't really want to change over from PLD to crystal report

Regarding the schema I got no idea what you talking about

How do I narrow it don't to what we use???

Thanks and Regards

below is the website I found for free code 128 font and calculation.

Basically u will need to implement a function to calculate your code 128 ASCII result based on your input string. Once u calculate the correct code 128 ASCII, then the font can display it correctly in barcode format.
