How to Configure the Item Code and Conversion Factor (CF) Separator in Barcode Label Printing?
In this tutorial, we will learn how to configure the Item Code and CF Separator in Logic ERP's Barcode Label Printing module. This feature allows you to define a separator between the item code and the selected conversion factor when printing barcode labels.
Review the Default Barcode Format
Navigate to the Barcode Label Printing module.
Open the Configuration section.
Locate the option labeled as:
"Item Code and CF Sep"
Before configuring the separator, let's first review the default barcode label.
Select the required Purchase Voucher.
Select the required item from the voucher.
Click Create.
The Barcode Printing Design Selection window will appear.
Click Yes to print the barcode directly.
Click No to open the Barcode Design window.
Select No to continue.
Click Open and select the required barcode design format.
Default Behavior
As shown, the item code is currently configured using the Item Code database field.
Configure the Item Code and CF Separator
Return to the Barcode Label Printing Configuration window.
Locate the "Item Code and CF Sep" option.
Define the required separator.
For this example, set the separator as a hyphen (-).
Save the configuration changes.
Print the barcode label for the same Purchase Voucher again.
Result
The separator is not displayed because the barcode design is still using the Item Code database field.
To apply the configured separator, the database field must be changed to one of the following:
Item Code CF1
Item Code CF2
Item Code CF3
Let's apply these fields one by one and observe their impact.
Apply the Item Code CF1 Field
Open the Barcode Design window.
Locate the database field currently set to Item Code.
Replace it with Item Code CF1.
Save the barcode design.
Print the barcode label again.
Result
The Item Code CF1 field is applied successfully, and the configured hyphen (-) is displayed as the separator between the item code and CF1.
Apply the Item Code CF2 Field
Return to the Barcode Design window.
Change the database field to Item Code CF2.
Save the barcode design.
Print the barcode label again.
Result
The Item Code CF2 field is applied successfully, and the configured hyphen is displayed between the item code and CF2.
Apply the Item Code CF3 Field
Return to the Barcode Design window.
Change the database field to Item Code CF3.
Save the barcode design.
Print the barcode label again.
Result
The Item Code CF3 field is applied successfully, and the configured hyphen is displayed between the item code and CF3.
Review Conversion Factors in Item Master
Open the relevant Item Master.
Review the conversion factors defined for the item.
Current Setup
As shown, the following conversion factors have been defined for the item:
Conversion Factor 1 (CF1)
Conversion Factor 2 (CF2)
Conversion Factor 3 (CF3)
System Behavior
The selected database field determines which conversion factor is displayed on the barcode label:
Item Code CF1: Displays the item code with Conversion Factor 1.
Item Code CF2: Displays the item code with Conversion Factor 2.
Item Code CF3: Displays the item code with Conversion Factor 3.
Key Benefits
Flexible Formatting: Allows you to define a separator between the item code and conversion factor.
Multiple Conversion Factors: Supports CF1, CF2, and CF3 in barcode labels.
Clear Identification: Makes the item code and conversion factor easier to distinguish.
Custom Barcode Design: Provides greater control over barcode label formatting.
Accurate Data Display: Ensures the selected conversion factor is reflected on the barcode label.
Final Outcome
After configuring "Item Code and CF Sep" and applying the appropriate database field, Logic ERP displays the item code and corresponding conversion factor on barcode labels, separated by the defined character. This provides a clear and flexible way to represent item codes along with their conversion factors.
