    Set up barcoded inventory

    1. Give every item or location a short, unique code, such as INV-00101 or A-01-B. If your items already have SKUs, use those.
    2. Paste the codes with a name after a Tab or comma, or upload your stock list on the CSV / Excel tab.
    3. Print on sticker sheets for shelves and boxes, or on a thermal roll for items.
    4. Scan with a USB or Bluetooth scanner, or a phone app, into your spreadsheet or inventory software.

    Labels for items, shelves and bins

    • Items: Code 128 with the item name underneath. A4 40 per sheet or Avery 5160 work for most products.
    • Shelves and bins: use location codes such as aisle-shelf-position. Bigger labels such as A4 14 per sheet are easier to scan from a distance.
    • Numbered boxes or totes: make a run with the sequence generator.

    Which barcode is best for inventory?

    Code 128. It holds letters and numbers, is compact and every scanner reads it. Use EAN-13 or UPC-A only for products you sell through retailers.

    Do I need special software to use these labels?

    No. A barcode scanner types the code like a keyboard, so it works with spreadsheets and almost any inventory or point-of-sale software.

    Can I print inventory labels on a thermal printer?

    Yes. Choose a thermal roll size such as 2×1 inch or 50×25 mm. Each page of the PDF is one label.
