How to Generate SSCC GS1-128 Barcode in Crystal Reports

Dear Support,
Could you help me with this? I try to generate the SSCC GS1-128 Barcode( See attached image).
I tried either
IDAutomation_Code128ApplyTilde("~2120000801234999999999~m17")
IDAutomation_Code128("(00)00801234999999999~m17")
It couldn’t scan. Am I missing something with the function?

Best Answer

The function IDAutomation_Code128ApplyTilde is from a Crystal Reports UFL that is considered legacy. In the latest version of all of our products, Crystal Reports Font Formulas are provided to eliminate the need for a UFL. For GS1 barcodes, we recommend the GS1-128 Barcode Font Package for proper sizing to meet specifications. If you have purchased the GS1-128 package in the past, you can update your support to obtain the latest version.

The following generates SSCC18 in Crystal Reports:

1.
Download the GS1-128 Barcode Font product and extract the files. Open the Crystal Reports Formulas.rpt example provided.

2.
Within the formula editor, change the formula to:
DataToEncode = "202" & "0000801234999999999~m17"
The ~m17 runs a calculation on the 17 previous digits to calculate the 18th digit (the check character). When the check digit is already included, it is unnecessary to add the ~m17.

For more assistance with the formula editor, refer to the Crystal Reports Font Formula Tutorial.

3.
Use the appropriate font and point size recommended in the GS1-128 Font User Guide, which is usually IDAutomationGS1 50 at 12 points.
