## How to Create a Barcode Label
Go to Assets App.
Click On Barcode Menu.
Click on Label Property.\
Click on + Add Label Property to create a new label.
Open new label page.
Enter a Label Name so you can identify the label later.
Add a short Description if required.
You can now design the label using drag-and-drop options. Add asset details such as Asset Name, Asset Tag, Serial Number, or Location.
You can also add text and the Barcode itself. You are allowed to change font size, colour, alignment, and borders to make the label clear and easy to read.
Once the label design is completed, preview the label to ensure everything looks correct, and then click Save.
### How to Generate Barcode for an Asset
To generate a barcode,
Go to Assets App.
Click on Barcode Menu.
Click on Generate Code.
Select the Product Type and Product for which you want to generate the code.
Choose how you want to create the code:
* Sequential Method: The system automatically generates codes in order.
* Manual Method: You can enter the code value manually.
* Using Asset Data: The system uses existing asset information such as Asset Tag or Serial Number.
Select the Mapping Field, which is the field where the barcode value will be saved in the asset record. After completing the details, click Add Asset (for new assets) or Update Asset (for existing assets).
### How to Print Barcode Labels
After the barcode is generated,
Click on Continue to Print Option.
Select the required Label Property which we created and preview the label.
If any barcode appears unclear, it will be highlighted. You can remove unclear codes to avoid printing labels that cannot be scanned properly.
Click Print to print the labels.
If you want to test first, click Test Print to print a sample label.
If you want to print later, click Print Later.
### How to Scan a Barcode
Once the barcode is attached to the asset, you can scan it using a scanner or mobile device.
Click on Hamburger in mobile App
Go to Asset Menu
Click on Manage Assets, Scanner will open.
Click on Done after scanning.
After scanning, System will automatically open the asset details page. This allows you to quickly view asset information without searching manually.
Scanning can also be used to update barcode details for existing assets.
### Barcode History
To view previously generated barcodes,
Go to Assets App.
Click on Barcode Menu.
Go to History.
Here, you can see both printed and unprinted codes. You can apply filters such as date, asset type, or user to find specific records. If required, you can reprint unprinted barcode labels.
