### **Check Barcode Printing Settings in Item Master**
* Navigate to the **Main Menu**
* Open the **Setup Module**
* Go to **Setup Items**
* Click on **Setup Items – Multiple Pack/Size**
#### **Actions**
* Search and select the required item
* Go to the **Pack Size Details** section
* Locate the option **“Do Not Print Barcode”**
#### **Important Note**
* If **Do Not Print Barcode** is enabled:

* The system will not allow barcode generation for this item
***
### **Understand the Barcode Printing Restriction**
* Open the **Barcode Label Printing** window
* Select the same item
* Click **Create / Print Barcode**
#### **Result**
* The system displays an error message: **“No Record found for printing”**

* Go back to the **Item Master**
* Disable the **Do Not Print Barcode** option for the item

### **Permanently Disable the Restriction for New Items**
If you want all **future items** to be barcode-enabled by default:
* Open **Configuration**
* Locate the **Do Not Print Barcode** default setting
* Untick the option
* Save the configuration
> This setting applies only to **newly created items**.\
> Existing items will still retain their previous settings.

### **Allocate Multiple Items for Barcode Printing (Bulk Method)**
