GR for PO from Vendors with Barcodes

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We want to make sure we scan some document for GRs against PO and place them in our

warehouse.Can we ask vendors to use the barcodes that are supported by SAP,so that we can scan them when we receive them.

What are possibilities of doing this.Do the vendors need to buy any software to make sure that they are using barcodes supported by SAP.

Does the barcode contain the purchase order info or the material quantity? Could you provide some information to deal with issue.

Thanks in advance

Dear Friend

I will say yes it will be possible to read and PO related information from the Barcode and input to SAP ......

To put it clear: you have to read, for example, a barcode that holds the PO information using a barcode scanner and this number should be sent to MIGO.

You might have to reengineer processes at your end and/or at your Business partner (s) end to get Barcode in unique way (more than one vendor ...all of them have to print batcode using logic in which you want).

You might have to consider various available options while scanning barcode and sendig information (automatically) to SAP or consider Interfaces, Hand held devices etc to do GR

Could you tell me what are requirements that we need to provide to have them used the SAP supported barcode? Do you have any documentation that we need to send to vendor specifying our reqs.?

Thanks in advance
