A random weight item is one that is weighed on scales, and the scale prints a label with the item PLU and sell price on it. The POS will scan that barcode to determine the item. The barcode that is printed is of a special format. Barcodes starting with 02 indicates that the barcode has a 4 digit PLU for the item. A barcode starting with 20 has a 5 digit PLU. Some countries can use additional prefixes. This section allows you to specify the prefixes that can be used for a barcode containing a 4 digit PLU and those containing 5 digit PLUs.

A comma-delimited list of the prefixes that are used for barcodes with 3 digit PLUs. |
Prefix 4 Digit PLU |

Prefix 5 Digit PLU |

Verifier Digit |
Item verifier digit. Basically another check digit but not needed or used for most modern scanners. If the option is turned on to ignore this digit, the price size will increase.

To support the printing of up to 3 customer-specific barcodes to the receipt footer, these settings allow you to map the required format to BARCODE1, BARCODE2 and BARCODE3 for the till. The special keywords <BARCODE1> and so on can then be added to the receipt definitions as required. The maintenance function (DataEntryItems.exe Barcode) defines the barcode formats including the required information.
Note this means that your POS must have a printer that supports barcode printing in the formats you are using and that you have the correct barcode escape codes set in POSPRINTER.
