The system can automatically assign barcodes to borrowers. This is seen when adding a borrower manually and when transferring borrowers from the Intake table, after importing through a CSV.

 

 

 

 

The automatic borrower barcode options define the rules of how the system generates this automatic number. There are two options that can be specified; Length and Character.

 

 

 

The Length field determines the the amount of digits the barcode should be when generated. For example, setting the length to 5 will always ensure that the barcode is at least 5 digits, so if the first number was 25, the number generated would be 00025.

 

The Character field is used to append a letter at the beginning of the barcode. If the length is 5, the character is B and the first generated barcode is 26 then the actual barcode generated will B00026. Notice that the character is appended, the actual length of the barcode is now 6.
