Answer: Although the ability to use barcodes to quickly and efficiently add items to transactions is present in all versions of Solid Route Accounting™ business systems, how barcodes are assigned to the inventory items will vary depending on the business system being used. Follow the instructions below that pertain to the company's Solid Route Accounting™ business system on assigning barcodes to inventory items.
Enterprise Edition Users:
- In Solid Business Central™, navigate to [Datafile / Inventory / View] and display the inventory item to assign a barcode.
- Use [F2 - Edit] to make changes to this record, and in the 'B Code' field, enter in all digits of the barcode, excluding punctuation (UPC-A type barcodes have 12 digits). When finished, save the barcode with [CTRL+END].
- Sync the handheld computers for the change to take effect into Solid Sales Pro™
