Printing Barcode Labels

Accolent ERP allows for barcodes that are stored as product synonyms to be printed on standard sticky label sheets. User can select a product population, a barcode type, and a form type, and then print the barcode labels. Product labels are printed on a form that has 80 products to a page. Bin labels can be printed on a form that has 2 products per page. Like all Accolent ERP forms, the standard forms may be customized to print on a different size sticky label template or to put different information on the label.

Default Barcode Type

  • First go to Settings > System > System Configuration to set the default barcode type to be used throughout.
  • Click on the Select Barcode Type hyperlink, select the barcode type, then copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the barcode name into the System Configuration Data Value field.

Printing Barcode Labels

  • Go to Inventory/Products > Barcodes > Printing Barcode Labels.
  • This screen allows the printing of product or bin labels that include the barcode as well as human readable information.
  • Printing and affixing these labels to products or bins allows warehouse personnel to scan rather manually identify products to pick or put-away, improving productivity and reducing errors.
  • Printing barcode labels involves the following steps:
    1. First go to Settings > Printing & Sending > Forms Setup to select the report form, and
    2. Then go to Inventory/Products > Barcodes > Printing Barcode Labels to select the population of products, then print the labels.

  • Use the Designer to select the barcode type, by default both forms are set to UPC-A.

  • The barcode bin/shelf label report prints on SL514 to create 2 labels each 5.5” x 8.5” per sheet.

  • Both these reports can be modified to print on different size labels and/or to include other information, change fonts, layout, etc.
  • Available fields in the View include: Company Logo, Product Code, Product Description, Warehouse Code, Barcode Type, Pkg Qty, List Price, Weight, Vendor No, Vendor Name, Product Image, Primary Location, Lot No, etc.
