Product Barcode Listing


This is a maintenance utility that can be added to an Additional Options menu as it is not on a standard menu.

A barcode scanner can be used to read product codes into the software. This product report can be used to assist the process of updating barcodes in the product file, at the time that the barcodes are physically assigned to the rental and sale products.

For general information about use of these scanners refer to Barcode Scanners.
