OrderStream supports assigning UPC codes to items within Seradex. Below are instructions on how to setup the UPC code generation. UPC codes are in the following formats
NNNNNNXXXXXC
NNNNNN = your six digit manufacture code from the UCC
XXXXX = five digit unique counter
C = Check Digit (calculated by seradex)
You require a special GenKey record to be setup within the GenKey Table.
The following values must be set in the table for this to function correctly.
TableCaption = UPC
TableName = UPC
Prefix = This must be your 6 digit manufacture code which is provided to you from the Uniform Code Council. Seradex does not provide this number for you
YearChars = 0
MonthChars = 0
DayChars = 0
StartNumber = 00001 (This will be the starting number of the unique counter part of your UPC Code)
LastKey = 00001 (This will be the starting number of the unique counter part of your UPC Code) This field is important it keeps track of the last UPC number to prevent duplicates
To assign a new UPC code within OrderStream , open a relevant item in the Item Editor. Go to the Additional Tab, click the button to the right of the UPC field and the next one will be generated.
