If u want to generate barcode in the smartform then

create a character format.

use that character format where u want barcode to be printed.

Reward if useful

Before printing I need to save barcode against material number so that I can move the inventory through storage locations and bom picking accurately .....

if I am going wrong then please guide me

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I found following information for barcode setting for material setup but in my mm03 screen following option is disabled. Kindy let me know how do I enabled it

Go to Material Master Display (MM03)

Go into one of your materials, Basic Data 1 view is good enough.

Now, just below the command field (The place where you enter t-codes) There is a services for objects button.

Click on it --> Create --> Enter Bar Code (disabled on my screen).

Creating Bar code:

-->From trans code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save

--> when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix

-->Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.

-->The place where you are using the field value use like this

<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.

You will get the field value in the form of barcode.

Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.

It will give an idea about barcode commands.

SAP Barcodes

-->Barcode solution consists of the following:

barcode printer

barcode reader

mobile data collection application/program

A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number

in machine readable format.

There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.

You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.

Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.

Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.

for smart, please check the below link:

http://www.sap-img.com/abap/questions-about-bar-code-printing-in-sap.htm

See the below program forbarcode in sapscript for your reference:

DATA: BAR_CODE1(16) VALUE `ABC01230123A01'

NEW-PAGE PRINT ON IMMEDIATELY `X'.

FORMAT COLOR OFF INTENSIFIED OFF.

If the barcode is the first element on the page, the following Write

statement is needed (otherwise you get a date in the first print

control.

WRITE:/

Turn on the barcode font, print the data, and switch back to the

printer's default font. Be sure to use NO-GAP to avoid unwanted

characters or CR/LF.

PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION `BCPFX'

WRITE: BAR_CODE1 NO-GAP

PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION `BCSFX'

Add a Write statement to prevent insertion of CR/LF into the barcode.

WRITE:/

Sample SAPSCRIPT

Variable BAR_CODE1 contains the barcode data, including asterisks.

The & is needed to avoid unwanted spaces or CR/LF characters

/E LINE

/: PRINT-CONTROL BCPFX

= &BAR_CODE1&

/: PRINT-CONTROL BCSFX

Hi!

You can define new barcode formats using Tcode SE73. These can be printed both in SAP Script and Smartforms.

Cheers!
