Bar codes in Smart Forms

[Former Member]

Hello,

Maybe anyone could provide short guidance how to create SmartForm for fixed assets barcode labeling?

hi,

You need to use a SMARTSTYLE and create a CHAR format and create a BAR Code there and use it in the Smartform.

If you need more info, goto Transaction : SMARTSYLES, do an F4 and in the text area, look for Bar Codes. And see how these Styles are used in the Smartforms.

If somehow you can't preview it properly and the printout didn't show any barcode at all..

First try to use Standard Barcodes like TYPNR or RSNUM etc in the charcter format...

You can preview the output at any moment IF YOU USE THE CORRECT BARCODE FORMAT.

But printer should support barcode printing for taking printout. Otherwise in printout it will print junk values...

If you want to print bar codes from R/3 using device type HPLJ4, HPLJ5, HPLJ5SI or HPLJ4000 on HP LaserJet 4, 5, 6 or 4000 series printers, you need what is known as a SIMM module (IC card). This SIMM module is called "JetCAPS Intelligent Barcode SIMM" and can be obtained for most HP LaserJet 4, 5, 6 and Laser Jet 4000 printers. For more detailed information regarding barcode printers refer to Notes 5196, 121305, 119471

Hope this helps.

I just created Smart Form with barcode, but after print-out on the paper list I see error box like this:

________________

| Barcode Error

| Wrong Data

I tried to change barcode types (ARTNR, AUFNR, RSNUM, BC_CD39) but this error box does not appear!

What does it mean? Where is an error? How to fix it?
