Random Weight Barcodes
Random Weight Barcodes are barcodes which contain both the part number and the weight of the item. System Five random weight barcodes are in the format RW+[part number]+[weight]. When you scan one of these barcodes, it adds the item to the invoice and set the weight or quantity to the weight on the barcode. How the weight is interpreted depends on the options you have set for weights. The weight is multiplied by 1000.
Random Price Barcodes
Random Price Barcodes are barcodes which contain both the part number and the total of the Item. System Five random price barcodes are in the format RP+[part number]+[price]. When you scan one of these barcode, it adds the item to the invoice, setting the quantity to 1 and the price to the price on the barcode. The price is multiplied by 1000.
It is important that you set the pre-amble on the barcode scanner, and define the pre-amble in the Setup Wizard, Point of Sale Devices. The barcode produced is a Code128 barcode, not a UPC barcode.
Random Weight Barcodes can be printed from shipping labels on an invoice for all items that are tagged as Sell by weight on the invoice.
