Several elements of ITrack and ITrack software utilize barcodes. All ITrack products should utilize a similar barcoding scheme.
Inventory
Identified by a raw number (no character preface, starts with a digit). Numbers with less than 10 digits are assumed to be the primary key of an inventory record (inventoryid in Enterprise, partnum in Pro). Numbers with greater than 10 digits are assumed to be UPC codes.
Location
Location barcodes are prefaced with % - the rest of the text is a string with the location name/identifier.
ITrack User
Prefaced with U - Signifies that the rest of the barcode contains a user id, referencing an ITrack user account
Work Order Job
Prefaced with J - Signifies that the rest of the barcode contains a job id, referencing a work order job.
Other, context-sensitive
Prefaced with + - Signifies that the rest of the barcode contains a context-sensitive command, which will probably not have meaning outside of magical bar-code applications.
