2. How it works
2.1. Barcode listing
Barcode listing is a view to display all barcodes of all products saved in Inventory
Management. It contains Barcode, SKU, Supplier and Purchased Time.
From this screen, admin can instantly take actions like importing or generating barcode
with 5 buttons on the top right.
Admin can also view details of each product and barcode.
Magento Barcode Management Version 1.0 5
From barcode detailed page, admin can configure barcode printing and print barcode
directly. Product information is shown including Image, name, price and its availability in
each warehouse.
2.2. Generate barcode
Inventory Management gives you 2 modes to generate barcode:
- One barcode per product SKU
- Multiple barcodes per product SKU
This can be configured in Barcode Settings.
Magento Barcode Management Version 1.0 6
- If you set “One barcode per product SKU” as “Yes”, then the system will allow you
to generate only one barcode for one product SKU.
Now to generate barcode, you go to Generate Barcodes tab. From here you can select
the product that you want to generate barcode, fill in the Supplier (optional) then generate.
- If you set “One barcode per product SKU” as “No”, then it opens up 2 options to
generate barcode when you go to Generate Barcodes tab.
These 2 options are: Generate barcode per item or Generate barcode per purchase.
“Generate barcode per item” means each item will have its own identified barcode
although they have the same SKU.
“Generate barcode per purchase” means items will be identified by the time it is
purchased. Although you take 10 items with same SKU in one time purchasing from
supplier, these 10 items will have the same barcode. But in another time of purchase, they
will have different barcode.
Magento Barcode Management Version 1.0 7
After selecting the option you want to proceed with, you can continue selecting product, fill
the product Qty., supplier and purchased time (optional) then generate. Admin can
configure the barcode pattern to generate. Barcodes generated will be saved in Barcode
listing page & Barcode created history.
Admin can configure the barcode pattern to generate. Barcodes generated will be saved
in Barcode listing page & Barcode creating history.
2.3. Import barcode
When you generate barcodes in mass, you will not need to use Generate barcode feature.
Instead, you can import barcode directly into the system using the Import barcode
feature of Inventory Management.
The system provides a sample import file including SKU, Barcode, Qty. and Supplier &
Purchase time (optional).
Magento Barcode Management Version 1.0 8
After preparing the file as in the sample file, now you can upload the file, fill the reason
and start to import.
2.4. Barcode label template
You can create your own barcode template by adding new template. There are also 3
most used templates as default templates in the extension: A4, Jewelry and Standard for
you to select.
You can configure paper width and height, label width and height, font size…and preview
the template before saving.

2.5. Print barcode
In Barcode configuration, admin can select the barcode template from the templates
created before to print.
Admin can select multiple barcodes to print at once. Or click to View under Action column
to print one barcode multiple times.
2.6. Scan barcode
In Inventory Management extension, you need to use a Barcode scanner which is able to
connect with your computer. Then you can scan to read product information or update
stock Qty. when doing Stock taking (Stock taking is a feature available in Inventory
Management extension) or managing purchase orders (Magestore Barcode management
extension is totally compatible with Magestore Inventory Management & Purchase
Management extension.)

information.
