Tips

The following list includes tips for GS1-128 Bar Codes:

Some GS1 application identifiers have fixed lengths. For example, the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) (01) must be 14 digits. If the data does not have the correct number of characters or digits, the data cannot be parsed.
Negative values are converted to their absolute values, for example -123.456 is treated as 123.456.
Values are rounded to significant digits equal to the maximum string length of the Application Identifier (AI).

For example, when the weight is in pounds, the AI is 320n, which must be 6 numbers in length, and where n is the number of decimals.

The following are more examples:
- 999999.499999999999 will be (3100)9999999
- 1.234567890123456 will be (3105)123457
- 0.0001234567 will be (3109)123457

The Test Parse Bar Code page opens.
In the Bar Code field, enter the Bar Code.

When entering a GS1 Bar Code, you must enter the number based on how the scanner reads the number. For example, if a GS1-128 Bar Code number is displayed on the label as (01)00033315854721(15)170131(10)LOT785693(21)SER554768(3202)0049.90, and the separator is defined in the Bar Code Setup as an equal sign (=), you must enter in the Bar Code field, a value of 0100033315854721=15170131=10LOT785693=21SER554768=3202004990=.

If the bar code is recognized, the Details FastTab is populated.
