Product barcodes
Add printed or Storeflea-generated barcodes to products and batches so you can scan them at the billing counter.
Quick steps
- 1
Open a product
Edit the product you want to barcode.
- 2
Add a barcode
Enter an existing printed barcode, or generate a new one from Storeflea.
- 3
Optionally barcode a batch
If you track batches, add a barcode to a specific batch for exact lot scanning.
- 4
Print if needed
Print generated barcodes to stick on products or shelves.
Barcodes turn counter billing into scan-and-go. In Storeflea every barcode is unique within your account, and you can barcode at two levels.
Product vs batch barcodes
- Product barcode — one code for the product across your shop.
- Batch barcode — a code tied to a specific lot, so scanning also selects the right batch (useful with expiry tracking).
Bring your own, or generate
- Existing barcode — type in the EAN/UPC already printed on the packaging.
- Generate — create a Storeflea barcode and print it for items that don't have one.
Then scan at billing
With barcodes set, use the scan input on the desktop point-of-sale to add items instantly. See Bill with barcodes for the counter workflow.
Because codes are unique per account, a scan always resolves to exactly one product (and batch, when applicable).
Frequently asked
Can I generate barcodes in Storeflea?
Yes. On a product you can enter an existing printed barcode (EAN/UPC) or generate a new Storeflea barcode to print. You can also barcode individual batches so scanning selects the correct lot.
What's the difference between a product barcode and a batch barcode?
A product barcode identifies the product across your shop. A batch barcode is tied to a specific lot, so scanning it also picks that batch — handy when you track expiry.
