  • When creating or updating records during Import, the item HRID isn’t readily available. A barcode is required to change the item status.  We agree to manually create a placeholder barcode when creating a new item when importing multiple records that do not already have a barcode.

  • Syntax

    • B followed by 035 9\ followed a hyphen followed by the 2 Letter school code

  • Examples:

    • BFCJSTORP10/2939doi-SC

    • B(FCNAXOS)8110263-UM

  • Remember that barcodes are specific for each institution
