Dry article barcodes
This type of barcode contains only the product number.
Dry article barcodes are the most common barcode used on branded goods. For
example, a jar of coffee might have a manufacturers product number
5021991245497.
Creating the product (PLU) file:
Create a dry article barcode in EAN8 and EAN13 formats
AAAAAAAC
AAAAAAAAAAAAC.
Please remember .....
Do this before you create the PLU. See
Then:
1. Create a nonwhite PLU. See
2. Program the item price.
3. Enter any other product information you want to include in the product file.
4. Select barcode enabled.
5. Enter the barcode format reference.
6. Enter or scan the manufacturer's barcode number when you see the barcode format
displayed.
Note: You can only enter the product number in the designated article number positions
(A) in the barcode format.
Please remember .....
You can only assign a dry article barcode to a non weighed PLU. It is illegal to use
this type of barcode for a weighed PLU.
When the goods are scanned in sales mode the receipt shows the description and the
price programmed in the PLU.
Price embedded barcode
Some goods may come from the manufacturer already weighed and priced, for
example frozen chickens and pre-packed fruit and vegetables. In this case the
manufacturers barcode will include the product number and the selling price.
