Barcode printing and generating barcodes are two different things.
Generating barcode means you will have to generate the data in a particular number format. For example, you have the barcode field EMP_BARCODE, and you can generate the barcode based on the hire date and employee number e.g., 2020100150001.

Can we create bars like this
Swarup
I need to generate Barcode for products, print barcode, display barcode into reports and read data from barcode scanner to retrieve a product.
Vinish Kapoor
To generate a barcode, you need to simply generate a number as per suggestion from your client. To print the barcode, you will have to use a barcode font (maybe a free version or paid it depends on your client). For scanning the barcode, I have already explained it to you.

Swarup
i have entered all data for a product there is one field where i want barcode number to be generated and when it goes to report the barcode image with code should come please help me sir
Vinish Kapoor
When you show that barcode field in the report, use the barcode font for the barcode field only, then it will show the barcode numeric data as the barcode, but physically it's not an image.

I have created alphanumeric but how to (use the barcode font for the barcode field only) in the interactive report please guide me.
Swarup
Sir please help me
Vinish Kapoor
Add the following Google barcode font code into the HTML header section:
Below is the screenshot:
The font I used in the above image is different, don't use that. For your purpose font, Libre Barcode 128 Text is ok.
Now to make the product id column in the report as the barcode add the following code in the HTML expression section of the product id column:
Below is the screenshot:
Output:
You can use more types of barcodes. Check this link Google font barcode.
Swarup
Many many thnx sir for your kind support,it shows in classic report but not showing in Interactive Report
Vinish Kapoor
I have given the example using the interactive report, and it worked perfectly.
Swarup
But its showing error related to java console and its displaying the same code not the bar code is anything changes required in browser(any browser support issue)
Vinish Kapoor
I tested on Chrome, and it is working fine. If your barcode is showing in the classic report, then you can use a classic report.
Swarup
Now its work fine after clearing the Cache,Many Many Thnx sir,
Can we store that barcode into the DB
Vinish Kapoor
The numeric barcode digits are only stored in the database. The actual barcodes are only for printing and scanning purposes.
Swarup
Ok Sir,Can we implement in Interactive Grid because there is PDF download option but in Interactive Report i am unable to download pdf
Vinish Kapoor
To display barcode in an interactive grid, change the type to HTML expression then specify the expression as follows:
But maybe your downloaded PDF will not show the barcode, you will have to create a BI report to display the barcode.
