## How to Set Up Barcode and Quantity Separator for Scanning Barcodes with Quantities in Sale Bill?

This tutorial will guide you through the process of configuring and using the **Barcode and Quantity Separator** feature in Logic ERP, along with the **Auto Allocate Lots for Barcode Quantity Scanning** setting.

***

### **Configure the Barcode and Quantity Separator:**

* Open **Sales Voucher Configuration**.
* Select the relevant **Billing Series** under **Other Settings - 1**.
* Click on **Other Settings**, then navigate to the **Default - 2** tab.
* Locate the option labeled: **"Barcode and Quantity Separator"**.
  * This is used in weighing scale integrations where the barcode contains item code and quantity separated by a character.
* Set the desired separator (e.g., underscore `_`).

### **Implement Without "Auto Allocate Lots for Barcode Quantity Scanning"**

* Leave the option **"Auto Allocate Lots for Barcode Quantity Scanning"** **unchecked**.
* Proceed to the **Billing** screen and scan a barcode containing quantity (e.g., barcode with 6 units).
* **Observation**:
  * The system prompts a **Lot Selection** window.
  * You must **manually select** the appropriate lot.
  * The system still recognizes the correct quantity (e.g., 6 units), but manual allocation is required.

### **Implement With "Auto Allocate Lots for Barcode Quantity Scanning"**

* Return to **Sales Voucher Configuration**.
* Enable the checkbox for **"Auto Allocate Lots for Barcode Quantity Scanning"**.
* Save the configuration.
* Go back to the **Billing** screen and scan a barcode with quantity.
* **Observation**:
  * The **Lot Selection** window no longer appears.
  * The system **automatically allocates** inventory from available lots.
  * Example: 80 units are allocated from a lot that originally had 85 units.

### **Scenario – Insufficient Quantity in a Single Lot**

* Scan another barcode with a quantity greater than what's available in a single lot.
* **Observation**:
  * The system **splits the quantity across multiple lots**.
  * Multiple rows are generated to fulfill the required quantity using available stock.

**Conclusion**

By configuring the **Barcode and Quantity Separator** and enabling **Auto Lot Allocation**, Logic ERP can streamline the billing and inventory assignment process—especially useful in environments with weighing scales and high-volume item scanning.
