(This feature is available in BCSS Deluxe, Diamond and Virtual.)

BCSS will only register bar codes from the New-Sale Screen.

There are two ways to enter a bar code in BCSS:

1.  Scan a Bar Code

On the New-Sale Screen, click in the Bar-Code-Entry Box.

Scan the bar code. If a bar code is read that does not exist in inventory, BCSS opens the New-Inventory-Item Process. Choose the Consignor who provided the item.

After the new item is entered, read the bar code again to enter the item on the New-Sale Screen.

2.  Manually Enter a Bar Code

If the bar-code reader is unable to read a bar code -

1. Click in the Bar-Code-Entry Box on the New-Sale Screen and start to enter the bar code (using number keys at the top of the keyboard - not the numeric keypad on the right of the keyboard).
2. Enter a bar code and press Enter
3. The pop-up window disappears and processing proceeds as if a bar code had been read with the reader.

Existing Bar Codes

BCSS recognizes existing bar codes. Just enter the existing bar code number while entering inventory. Click in the bar-code field and scan the bar code.
