Field Description

Check Digit: Length The number of digits in the check digit. This field is initially 0. It

changes to 1 if the selected symbology is neither Generic nor Fol

lett Classic.

Total length The total number of characters and digits in the barcode, including

the check digit. If you are editing this field, you can only enter the

numbers 4 through 14.

Assigning barcodes

Circulation Plus/Catalog Plus allows you to automatically assign the next

highest available barcode number to an item or a patron. For example, when you

create a patron record, you can either manually assign a barcode by scanning the

number of a physical barcode, or you can let Patron Maintenance automatically

assign a barcode number for you. It does this by finding the highest number that

has been used in your patron barcode symbology and incrementing the item

number by one. If necessary, a check digit is also calculated, but the rest of the

barcode definition remains the same.

Important: Circulation Plus/Catalog Plus use the next highest available barcode,

not the first unused barcode.

Keep the following in mind when allowing Circulation Plus and Catalog Plus to

assign barcode numbers for you:

 Before you assign a barcode, one barcode must already exist that matches

your symbology. For example, if you change your symbology for library

materials to a 14digit Code 39 Mod 10 symbology, you must first manually

assign a barcode number to an item before the system can automatically

assign a barcode number.

 If you define a nonFollett Classic symbology in System Setup, Circulation

Plus and Catalog Plus use the nonFollett Classic symbology as the basis for

generating new barcode numbers, not Follett Classic.

 If you assign the highest item number available in your symbology,

Circulation Plus and Catalog Plus cannot automatically assign any more

barcode numbers for you. For example, if you use Follett Classic as your

symbology for library materials, and you assign T 9999999 to an item, you

will no longer be able to automatically assign any more barcode numbers to

library materials.

 While Circulation Plus and Catalog Plus support item number lengths up to

14 characters, the Assign Barcode feature is limited to barcode symbologies

containing item lengths of 9 characters or less. If your symbology includes an

item number length greater than 9, you cannot use the Assign Barcode

feature.
