Creating and Deleting Barcodes

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

This is very similar to the processes involved with using the Types Stocking In and Out, however this gives you the option to connect specific Items each transaction.

 

NOTE: If you have already stocked in the quantity for that type of equipment, then you will want to use the Create Barcodes Only Action. For instance, if you have been using HireTrack for some time and you are just adding barcodes to your process, you would not want to use the Stock In (Acquisition) action as that would double your stock level when you add these barcodes. See below for how to process these barcodes.

 

First Select the Action that is required
Then select the Source and Destination
Enter the Quantity
Create or allocate Barcodes involved in this transaction
Add any Notes or Reference numbers
Press the Process buttons.

If you have several Barcodes with incremental numbers you can clone the first Barcode.

 

First press the tick eqb_save to save that entry, then enter the number of times you wish to clone the Barcode and press the 'Do Clone' button

 

The Barcode will be entered 10 times and incremented each time

Note: This will only work with barcodes that end with numbers. Letters will not be cloned.

The number of Barcodes and the number owned increases by the number of Barcodes entered.

 

Adding Barcodes without Stocking In (Acquisition)

The process is the same as above, but when the Barcode Definition Window appears, you MUST select the correct Acquisition Link from the Audit Trail to indicate when these assets were purchased.
