How to scan EAN codes and batch-wise barcodes in GoSure GRN (RetailEasy6)?

​

EAN stands for European Article Number, which consists of 13 digits ( 8 digits if the product is small), is the type of bar code that is used internationally to identify unique products at the Point of Sale. EAN’s are a series of numbers set against a bar line graphic, that is generated by the manufacturer. 


Each product has its own article number which is unique and cannot be found again worldwide. With this article number, an EAN can be generated and this can be applied to products as a barcode.


Benefit of EAN code: Using EAN code, saves a lot of time in the warehouse and sales department because the products can be identified in seconds.


Benefits of EAN code wise scan only mode: 


By using this mode, only EAN codes and batch-wise barcodes can be scanned. The scanning of normal barcodes is not supported.
