Updating Data in Inventory from BarCode Report Output

[arunava]

Hi ,
I have generated a ERW Report where one of the columns is a 2nd Item Number in Barcode.I want to scan this document for this i will use a Barcode scanner.After doing that i will update the inventory directly in JDE.I dont want to use any third party software.Is there any way by which i can achieve this.
Waiting for your reply.
Warm Regards
Arunava

as i know not directly
fisrt you have to write a basfn which is the interface beetwen your scanner and JDE.
Then you can use it into a specific application wich do what you want by using the XT4111Z1.
So, it's not so easy.

Have you tried searching on PeopleSoft for documents on this? There
used to be 1 or 2 knowledge garden documents about printing barcodes.



From memory, there were some steps for CNC to follow to install a bar
code font. And, I also think you had to be printing to a postscript
printer. Then all you have to do in your UBE is set the font for your
data to the bar code font.

You don't need to spend a lot of money. You could buy a $100 wedge scanner attached to a PC that would simulate keyboard entry. You can always get more sophisticated with 3rd party bar code systems and terminals. But, it would cost you more $$$.

Look for inventory adjustment into P4114 and XT4114Z1.
To read from your scanner, you have to know which port is in use. Then you can read data from device exactly like your read from serial caracter's device.
