    Description    
    For system generated barcodes, there are two options: 
    1. creating item barcodes using the Z30-REC-KEY [ADM record number + item sequence number] 
    2. creating them using last-barcode-number from UTIL/G/2 

    The default setting for the item barcode is option 1. If option 2 is preferred, add the following line to xxx50/tab/tab_checksum: 

    CSCR-Z30-BARCODE checksum_create_z30_by_doc_no 

    Note: these options were formerly set in tab100 (TAB100-DEFAULT-ITEM-BARCODE) and are now located in ./tab/tab_checksum.

    Additional Info / Related Articles    
    It is also possible to manually generate barcodes; for example, scanning a barcode sticker with a barcode scanner. For more information about acceptable scanners, see Article "Acceptable types of barcodes and scanners for use with Aleph".
