I have just purchases a barcode scanner, when I add a barcode to the item in the barcode field it shows up correctly, How do I set it up so when I scan the barcode, it links the particular barcode to my item number?

    Hi Jason,

    When adding barcodes to an item you will need to scan both barcode in the “Barcode” section and the “Item Name/Number”. Reckon Accounts will refer to the “Item Name/Number” to match with the physical barcode,

    To add the product name and product description they must be reflected in both the “Description on Purchase Transactions” and “Description on Sales Transactions”

    Hi, thanks for that, unfortunately we already have an inventory of 20,000+ items with suppliers part numbers entered into the "Item Name/Number" field, are there any software add ons that can link the barcode and item name fields. 
    Currently we enter the "item Number" in the item number field in our in invoices to add a product, we also show this part number on the invoice for reference.

    Hi Andrew, that is correct.
