Sage 100 Contractor can interpret part numbers to appear as barcodes using special barcode fonts. There are two barcode fonts that install with Sage 100 Contractor. They are BC C39 3 to 1 HD Wide and BC UPC HD Wide. When you edit the font for tkfprt.recnum to one of the barcode fonts, then it appears as a barcode in a report and can be printed as a label.

To change part numbers into barcodes on a report:

  1. Open 9-2 Parts.

  2. Click the Print Records button. The 9-2 Report Printing window opens.

  3. Create a report using the part description.

    For example, you can use report 21-Part Record as a starting point, and then save it with a different name.

  4. In the Report Printing window, click the Modify Report button.

    The Report Writer window opens.

  5. Select the tkfprt.recnum field, and then click Edit the font for the text area.

  6. Select one of the barcode fonts, for example, BC C39 3 to 1 HD Wide, then click OK.

  7. Save the report, then close the Report Printing window.

  8. From the 9-2 Report Printing window, click the Print Record to Screen button to preview the report.

    The part number now appears as a barcode.
