I often have to enter large number of water bills into an excel sheet manually, which takes lot of time and it can be inaccurate, all the bills have barcodes and I am wondering if I could use a USB barcode scanner to capture and input the value of each water bill into an excel cell?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have to process these vouchers with the following data items:
Log ID
Vendor Name
Invoice Number
Invoice Date
Cost Code or GL Acct
Amount
Description
Payment Approver
Date
We get the vouchers from another department and then we're required to key them into the billing system. I'm looking for a way to automate some of this task because it's getting tedious to key in all the information into the billing system when it's already on the voucher form.
We have a barcode scanner and am wondering if we could use that to scan the voucher and automatically populate the fields into Excel.
i am brand new to this forum, and not so fluent in excel for more complicated tasks.
i have been looking for a solution for this online, but seem to be running in circles, so thought i would post here.
I want to make an shipping list using a barcode scanner. i have a master list that contains all of the inventory numbers and the relevant item data in each row. i would like to be able to scan the barcode of the item and have excel automatically look up the row from the master list and put it into the shipping list.
I am using Excel 2013 and would like to input data into my spreadsheet using a barcode scanner. I've created some barcodes using an online barcode generator (Code 128-B). My barcodes are text as opposed to numeric. I initially tested it out using Access and it scanned the information just fine. However, when I try to scan in a code into Excel nothing happens, no error, no data, no nothing. Is there something I need to set in the options of Excel to recognize the barcode scanner as the input device? Or is there some other reason why the scanner might not be pulling in the data?

Why when I convert the following data, why the plus sign "+" converts to a /K?
I'm trying to convert values in groups of cells to a 3 of 9 barcode.
The value would be something:
+R4235
But when the font is changed to a 3 of 9 barcode and then I test the barcode in Notepad I notice that the plus sign is replaced with a /K.
I'm trying to copy about 10,000 barcode over to a new spreadsheet, the prob is that when I copy them over they appear as XXXX+12 and then when I try and use them it doesn't like it. I can solve it if I format the column to text - and then double click it. This is ok for a hundred or so but fingers start to hurt after that!

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe barcode lablels all have the following format: A318639....that is a letter followed by six numbers.
When I scan the barcodes into any cell, a dollar sign "$" appears in the front of the barcode string that is entered into the cell. The dollar sign is not a relevant part of the string of characters in the barcode label.
What I am looking for is a solution where upon scanning a barcode into any cell, the dollar sign is removed from the front of my string and I am left with just the seven character string which is shown above.
I have experimented with the Data Validation tool by trying to limit the number of characters that are allowed in a cell to seven characters, but that has not actually removed any characters from my data string.
Here is the situation:
I have a worksheet called ORDER where I have pallets and their contents: 1 barcode per pallet and 9 barcodes per box (9 boxes on a pallet).

On another worksheet called DESPATCH, I am trying to get a formula so when I enter the pallet barcode *p2* for instance in a cell. it automatically shows the 9 boxes details (without having to scan each box again).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a USB scanner connected to a PC. Data is entered into Excel when the part number barcode on a box is scanned. I have two worksheets that I will be scanning part numbers into, one is Group A and the other is Group B. On Group A's sheet there is a list of Group B part numbers that will be used for the lookup procedure when the barcode is scanned. The same is true for Group B's sheet. The groups should never be mixed, so if part number "B005" is scanned into Group A's sheet it should cause an error message to pop up. I've attached a workbook as an example. Is it possible to do this with VBA?
Barcode Scan Lookup.xlsx
I'm trying to use a barcode scanner to enter in information in a given Excel spreadsheet and then search for that exact same information in a column in the same Excel spreadsheet.
The barcode will enter in the numeric information in A1.
I am searching for the exact information in column F.
If found, I would like for the cell the information is in to turn a color such as green.
Is that doable with a formula in Excel 2010?
I found what looks to be a BASIC or perhaps early C form of code that will do exactly this, however I am finding it out of my grasp to 'convert' the below code over to VB for Excel, and I was hoping someone would be able to piece it together for me. Code128B is a barcode font that requires a 'computed' start and end bit, as well as a checksum character(s) in order for the barcode to be valid and readable by barcode scanners. This code (in whatever it is written, I don't really know), is said to do just that. Code:..................

I would like to enter data in a row with 4 cells of info. then hit enter and return to the first cell and move the row down. all four cells must have data entered. and all four must move down. i tried some code as below i found and i modified but it did not work as expected. this moved the row down when returning the cursor to A2. It also should not copy the data style of the top row.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Column <> 1 Then Exit Sub

This formula must be confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER not just ENTER. You will see { } brackets appear.

I would like to use multiple scanners using a 8 port hub but I am having trouble with a scanner starting my macro and another scanner dumping data into my macro before the first one is finished.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy company uses 4 types of barcodes 8, 12, 13, & 14 number barcodes for our products my problem is that I can't figure out how to force the barcode to format properly no matter how somebody enters it if they don't use spaces or put them in the wrong spots, I can't use custom formats because there is 4 different layouts
8 digit should be "#### ####"
12 digit should be "###### ######"

I get a text file daily for routed deliveries containing a barcode, name, address and phone number that I convert into csv and then upload it into a route optimization software. after optimization is complete it has assigned packages to drivers and I export it to excel and print. My sorters are having a difficult time reading the addresses on the packages and assigning them to the proper driver, so I am trying to come up with a way.
My idea is that I can import the barcode as a custom field into the route optimizer and then when I export it, that barcode field will still be associated to that order. I want to scan the barcodes of the package into column C which will reference all of the barcodes in B and when it finds the match, it will return the value in A, the driver assigned to that particular package. This way my sorter will just have to scan the packages and throw it into the proper bag for the driver instead of having to visually scan the printed manifest to match.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been using Excel for years and had very few issues. However, I recently went into a spreadsheet to update it and was unable to select and enter data into an individual cell. When I click on a cell and try to enter #s nothing happens (my num lock is on). Then when I try to click into another cell it just highlights that cell, along with any other that I move my cursor over. Once I click on one cell I can't stop the highlighting from happening. I can't even click on anything in the toolbar.

i have textbox, i write something and i have a code. I want only launch my code after pressing enter.
I have this series of userform modules that error check the user's input of a date value.
Code:
Private Sub txtDate_Enter()
txtdate.SelStart = 0
txtdate.SelLength = Len(txtdate.Value)
[Code]....
Everything works fine, but I'm looking to improve it's efficiency. Most people will by habit press [ENTER] after inputting the date in the textbox txtdate control. As it is now, for the code to execute after the value is entered is to push the {SUBMIT} button.
What would I need to do to allow hitting [ENTER] to do the same as clicking submit?
I have a userform made with excel. I need to tab to the next field (in the tab order) when I press enter instead of having to press the tab key. Is there an easy way to do this. Im not that savvy with VBA.
