Barcodes & labels

Who can use thisOwnerManagerInventory staff

Products that don’t already have a printed barcode can get an internal barcode from SunarOne, which you print onto labels and scan at the counter.

Generate an internal barcode

For a product with no barcode, generate one — SunarOne creates a store-internal code (it starts with a 2, the standard prefix for in-store barcodes) so it won’t clash with manufacturer barcodes.

Print labels

Print product/shelf labels with the barcode, name and price. The labels are crisp (printed as sharp vector barcodes), so a scanner reads them reliably.

Scan at the counter

Scan the printed label at the POS with a hardware scanner, or use your phone’s camera as a scanner. The scan finds the product instantly and drops it in the cart.

Tip

Give fast-moving, un-barcoded items (loose hardware, local products) an internal barcode and a shelf label — it makes billing at the counter much quicker.
