A barcode is a series of black parallel lines on a white background with varying spaces, encoding information that can be machine-read and fed into a computer system. It is primarily used to handle different types of stock, allowing for efficient information storage and retrieval.
Barcodes are an invaluable tool for manufacturers and traders. They provide a cost-effective and time-saving solution that reduces human error associated with manual data entry. Additionally, barcodes minimize employee workload, reduce training time, and lower operational costs.
