Do you want to display the barcode of the item that was already scanned in your reports? To do this, you only need to make a slight modification to the tag of your Barcode element in your Word and/or Excel template. To obtain a 128B barcode, you must add :128; so, if the tag of your element at the origin is ##article##, you will notice :
##article:128## : if you don't want to worry about the size of your barcode image.
##article:128-widthxheight## : if you want to define a width and height.
Also, if you want a QR Code to be displayed, you will insert :qrcode after. As a result, you get :
##article:qrcode## : to obtain a standard size.
##article:qrcode-widthxheight## : if you want to specify a width and height.
