Navigating the Barcode Manager Dashboard

Familiarise yourself with the Barcode Manager dashboard before you get started.

The Dashboard is the first page you will see after logging in to Barcode Manager. There are 4 sections to the Dashboard:

Summary Section

This section can be found at the top of the page.

GTIN Ranges

This section can be found in the middle of the page below the summary section.

Here you can see the active prefixes on your account as well as any prefixes that aren't currently using Barcode Manager for product assignment. You can also manage your active prefixed with the Action drop down.

GLN Ranges

This section can be found at the bottom below the GTIN Ranges.

Here you can see the ranges you are able to assign GLNs (Global Location Number) from as well as those that are not currently registered for use on Barcode Manager. The GLNs you create in Barcode Manager are to identify physical locations such as a building, warehouse, or room. GLNs for EDI Locations are a different licence. Please contact our Helpdesk for more information on EDI Location Codes.
