Characters Before Input S’abonner
I currently have a barcode (3 of 9) for an employee ID. These associates are moving to another part of the building. The barcode needed is UPC-A. From what the engineers are telling me I should be able to take badge 2204925 (3 of 9) and have a barcode of 99992204925 (UPC-A). Two things are happening. I have gone through the input mask and used "9999"00000000 (("9999"0000000;1;_)). I get the prompt with 9999 and then I can scan the badge in and then I get "The following error was encountered while encoding bar code object "Bar Code 1" with data "2204925". the data source does not have enought digits for GTIN. I pad and continue but the barcode has zeores instead of nines. Any suggestions?

The UPC-A barcode is a retail barcode for a retail product, I would assume that you wouldn't be wanting to use such a retail specific barcode symbology for an ID badge. Perhaps what you want is a Code 128 barcode, which is a better barcode for general use than Code 39.

Thanks...yes UPC-A is retail. We are investigating other symbologies. The majority of the scans ARE UPC-A. Our operations team wants to be able to track WHO uses which scanner and we are not sure what other ones can be read off that scanner.
UPC-A is for a specific number of digits, which is why the code gets padded with additional zeros if you enter inadequate data. You really shouldn't try to use it for this application.

OK...I have changed to Code 128. I have a barcode that I need to scan to generate another barcode. The original barcode would be 2204925 (sample employee ID). The new barcode needs to be "99992204925". I have the input mask as
"9999"0000000;1;_. When I use this I have the padded 9's in the prompt but when I do a print it only shows the associate ID (2204925). Can you please assist?
