Introduction
The bar code module allows you to add bar codes where it can be usefull (like on products cards or third parties).
Installation
This module is included with the Dolibarr distribution, so there is no need to install it.
Configuration
To use this module, you must first enable it using an administrator account, via the menu option "Home - Setup - Modules".
Choose the tab where the module is listed. Then click on "Activate".
The module is now activated.
If a cog icon appears 
on module thumb or at end of the line of the module, click on it to access the setup page specific to the module.
On the setup page, you choose for each barcode format you want to support, the engine that will build the graphical output (image) of bar code.
The engine available by default and supported by Dolibarr developers is php-barcode.
Eventually, you can install the program genbarcode (http://www.ashberg.de/php-barcode/download/#genbarcode) to have more format supported by this engine. You can also install new barcode generator engines (see in download area of http://www.dolibarr.org) to support more format.
Then, always on module setup page, choose which feature you want to enhance with barcodes:
- Products management
- Third parties management
Usage
Once the setup step is finished, you will see a new field "bar code" on some screens, depending on what you choosed for features to enhance (third party screen and/or product screen). You can then enter barcode values in such fields.
