This has come up in past posts, but I didn’t find anything recent. Has Epicor come up with a good native option for cloud customers to use 2D barcodes in SSRS yet? I know 3rd party tools exist but require to run on the report server. Just curious what the most recent update is on this and what opti…

I am looking for the post that mentions it but I believe this is coming with the transition to Bold Reports. There are 3rd party solutions for SaaS we have been printing QR codes since we went to cloud and have had 0 issues so far. (Countdown to something breaking)

What solution are you using to enable it for SaaS?

[image] QR Code in SSRS Epicor ERP 10 Sorry for the necro but we are moving from on-prem to cloud soon and I just started testing this method: =“ http://qrcode.kaywa.com/img.php?s=8&d= ” +Fields!PartNum.Value It is working but I have to say the solution makes me itchy for …

Yeah we are looking at ID automation. That seems to be the best option. I posted this just to make sure my search was correct and didn’t show any updates from Epicor to support them natively before pursuing the 3rd party option.

Just a spitball at a way to natively implement now, 2D barcode spec is well documented. You can pass base64 data into ssrs on the fly via CallContextHeader.BpmData, but does have the header size limitations. I don’t remember what formats SSRS rendering engine supports, but a QR code being a black …

It would have to render as a Data Matrix type, not a QR code.

I suppose there would be no reason not to accept an additional input for symbology and various other specifications like guard bar size, etc.

Just curious why the Data Matrix preference? In two unique customer scenarios involving a % sign and a Zebra scanner, I’ve seen issues with a Bartender generated Data Matrix that when switching to QR suddenly worked. No good explanation as to why, but it has skewed my preference since then.

Data Matrix is by default more information dense than a QR, so I would think this may be an artifact of printer DPI/head cleanliness/age?
