Product Barcode Listing
This is a maintenance utility that can be added to an Additional Options menu as it is not on a
standard menu.
A barcode scanner can be used to read product codes into the
software. This product report can be used to assist the process of
updating barcodes in the product file, at the time that the
barcodes are physically assigned to the rental and sale
products.
For general information about use of these scanners refer to
Barcode Scanners.
