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. If you choose to enter a Character, we recommend that you enter an upper case letter.
