The labels for this report are formatted for 3x10 (1" x 2 5/8") label sheets, such as COMPanion's V0055 Blank Barcode Labels. The output is limited to 1000 lines or 3000 labels. Use(s)- If you're getting new items and need to know which barcode ranges are available to use, run this report with the Range Information format.
- If you receive new items that don't have assigned barcodes yet, run this report with the Barcode Labels (3x10) format to generate and print some unused barcodes. Then, simply scan the unused barcodes as you enter new copy records.
- Use the Barcode List format to get a list of each individual unused barcode (within the specified range). With this, you can cross them out as you use them.
Selections
- Item or Patron Barcode Range. Enter a start and end value to find all unused barcodes within the search parameters.
- Alphanumeric Barcode Leader. If the barcode range being searched has a leader, enter it here. For instance, if all the searchable barcodes begin with BI2C, and the numeric parameters to be searched include 5000 through 500000 then the range is actually BI2C5000 through BI2C500000. Only values which are between 5000 and 500000 but begin with BI2C (e.g. BI2C5000-BI2C500000) that are unused will be returned.
- Look for ranges of 'XXXX' or more unused barcodes. Specify how many barcodes are necessary to include on the list. Values can be between 1 and 100,000.
