Bar Codes in Job Card

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

I'm using Code 39 for my barcodes, I can scan the employee card with no problem, the barcode is read correctly. When I attempt to read the bar code on the job card, the Symbol scanner does not read it at all. I have tried setting different barcode fonts in AX with no luck. Is there size restrictions or specific barcode fonts that must be selected for the Symbol scanner to recognise the barcode? I have setup a barcode under Basic > Setup and have set the barcode I defined in Shop Floor Control > Setup > Paramaters

Thanks, Jerry

    I found the problem. The length of the job number was to long to show up correctly on the job card. Once I reduced the job number to 7 characters I had no problem scanning it in.

    It is good to find the reason, if anything goes wrong again, I suggest you change a barcode generator which is powerful in the barcode font processing.
