Barcode400 is as flexible as you want it to be. All processing
is done directly on the iSeries/AS400 making it easy to integrate
with your existing iSeries/AS400 applications and print labels
without middleware software.
Integration
Inside your RPG, COBOL, or CLP program you simply make a
program call to Barcode400, passing a few parameters. The
CALL dynamically merges iSeries/AS400 variable data into
a previously designed label format and prints it!
No hard coding is necessary. The label format can be changed
by a non-programming personnel, without changing or recompiling
your application program.
All data, programs and label formats are centrally located
on the AS/400.
Proven/Reliable Hardware & Software - The superior
security of the iSeries/AS400 is used to maintain the integrity
of the labeling system. This software is so versatile that
multiple users connected to a midrange computer can design
and print labels at the same time.
Safe and Secure - The entire labeling system (data, formats,
programs) can be backed up as part of the routine iSeries/AS400
backup/restore procedure. No separate procedure to be written.
Revisions and Compliance - All label formats are centrally
located and available to all users. This eliminates the
headache of maintaining the same label format on multiple
Personal Computers. Risk of using old or revised label templates
is eliminated.
Central Management - Integrity and security can be enhanced
with one person in charge of maintaining label formats,
even if your company has remote sites! For example, a programmer
or non-programmer at the corporate office in New York can
design formats for its manufacturing and distribution centers
in Tennessee and California. Label formats and graphics
become available to all users the instant they are saved.
