Price Embedded Barcode Settings Not Working
Hi all,
It seems straight forward from the instructions on the website, but when I configure my settings it doesn't work. I'm using the following format
20XXX - Item Reference
XX - Price Verifier
PPPPP - Item Price
C - Check Digit
So a complete code for me looks like this
- 2086432001509 / Onions for $1.50
- 2082332009904/ Ginger for $9.90
This was the format for my other POS. What does Aronium expect?

Hi Glenroy,
Just for the reference, instructions can be found https://help.aronium.com/hc/en-us/articles/208663329-Barcode-settings. I believe you read them already, but let's try to find out what is missing.
First question is, how do you generate barcodes? If you are using weighing scale, then you should be able to follow the instructions and match the barcode generated from your scale.
For example, barcode "2086432001509" (Onions for $1.50) should be read correctly with the following settings:
- Prefix: 20
- Number of digits for product code: 5 (your example is 86432)
- Number of decimal places: 2 (so you get $1.5 from "00150")
If we break down your barcode 2086432001509 with above settings, this is what we will get:
- 20 - Prefix
- 86432 - Product code - assuming this is your onions product code)
- 00150 - Price with 2 decimal places - $1.50
- 9 - Control code
Depending on your product codes, you may want to enable "Trim zeros" option, if some of your product codes is less than 5 digits.
Also, make sure you set your search type to "barcode" as described at https://help.aronium.com/hc/en-us/articles/208766849-Workspace#search-type.
Hope this helps. If you still have issues with barcodes, please let us know.
Thanks, Aronium team.
