After the label is designed graphically in BAR-ONE for SAP R/3, it can easily and quickly be uploaded into SAP R/3, via the SAP R/3 Windows client. Once uploaded, the label can be printed from any other SAP R/3 client, anywhere in the world, to any Zebra printer without the need to purchase, setup or maintain any additional software. The printing is done direct from the SAP R/3 server. The only requirement is that each server has the Zebra device driver installed. The Zebra device driver for SAP R/3 is free and available from the SAP FTP site or directly from Zebra. The installation of this driver takes only a few minutes and it need never be maintained or modified.
Formatting attributes on the label are easily moved, changed, added, or deleted using the BAR-ONE for SAP R/3 WYSIWYG label design tool. No SAPscript programming is required to make formatting changes. Label size, font types, barcode symbology, line spacing, justification, logos, lines, boxes, circles, ellipses and variable data are all specified within the label design. A label can easily be modified at any time and re-uploaded into SAP R/3 without the need to make any manual modifications in SAPscript.
Complex labeling applications may require that some SAPscript needs to be written, i.e., filling in of variable fields based on the contents of other fields. This SAPscript can be written and stored within variable fields directly in BAR-ONE for SAP R/3. This allows for label designs to be easily modified, multiple times, and avoid the need to manually modify or re-write SAPscript.
BAR-ONE for SAP R/3 is already installed in some of the world’s largest SAP R/3 sites. One example of this is a chemical company, printing HAZchem labels that has 150 locations worldwide.
