17- SAP R/3 Support
BarDIMM functionality is supported standard by the SAP R/3 software.
SAP OSS notes are available from the
- OSS note #5196 lists standard R/3 barcode names and supported device types for
printing barcodes
- PCL-5 commands for Jetmobile BarDIMM are built into the HP device types by SAP
- Modifications are only required for special Barcode types and sizes
- OSS note #45643 lists PCL-5 command details for barcode attribute selection
- PCL-5 commands are maintained as “ Print Controls ” in SPAD
- SE73 transaction lists barcode names and print-controls for every device type
- Barcode on: Print-control SBPxx
- Barcode off (regular font): SBSxx
- A test text is built into R/3: SO10, SAPSCRIPT-BARCODETEST (client 000)
- The SAP print control for OCR-A is SF400 and SF500 for OCR-B
Note:
in the early release of the device type, there were a few errors in the escape
sequences. It is then recommended to verify the escape sequence syntax in R/3.
SAP has pre-defined a list of size and parameters for barcodes. If those don’t match your
needs, you may modify the controls (copy the controls into the user Z-environment and
modify them based on your needs). The barcode activation strings are easily defined using
this manual or the interactive BDTTGEN utility for Windows.
Note:
all print controls are defined in R/3 using Hexadecimal values (1B for <Esc>...).
For more information on using BarDIMM with SAP R/3,like on inclusion of FNC1 codes
in EAN128 barcodes, please consult the
web site, FAQ section.
18- Generic ERP, Unix AS/400 and Mainframes Support
Other ERPs (Oracle, JD Edwards, BAAN, Peoplesoft) can use BarDIMM Pro features by
including BarDIMM Escape sequences in output scripts (using the Freescape char if
necessary), or by using the BarDIMM TrueType fonts for Windows-based applications.
On Unix system, AS/400 (in SCS mode only) and Mainframes (in SCS mode only), you
just need to enter in your spools definitions the ASCII barcode activation PCL5 string
followed with the data to barcode to get nice looking barcodes. The barcode activation
strings are easily defined using this manual or the interactive BDTTGEN utility for
Windows.
