Adding Barcodes using the Barcode Manager in StoreFeeder

Overview

The Barcode Manager in StoreFeeder lets you upload barcodes and assign them to listings and products.

Access the Barcode Manager

Go to Settings > Misc > Barcode Manager.

Import barcodes

1. Click the green Import Barcodes button.

If you need to purchase barcodes, they are available from sites such as www.gs1uk.org.

1. In the window that appears, click Select File..., locate your barcode spreadsheet, and click Import.

You can download an example spreadsheet from the import window. The file must include two columns:

• Barcode - the barcode value
• Barcode Type - either EAN (European Article Number) or UPC (Universal Product Code)

View and manage barcodes

After importing, your barcodes appear in the Barcode Manager. You can search for a specific barcode, filter by Barcode Type, and check Availability.

A summary at the top shows total, available, reserved, and used counts.

Note: Barcodes are reserved for two hours from when they are assigned to a listing (typically via the Autofill feature). If the listing is saved within that time, the barcode becomes unavailable (used). If the listing is not saved within two hours, the barcode becomes available again.
