BARCODE RULES: for Default Barcode: Enter all the digits on a barcode label including the leading 0 and check digit, the max number of digits is 14. By entering a length of 6, 7, or 8 digits S2K will automatically convert to UPCA. Any barcode shorter than 6 digits will be left alone and items will be packed with leading 0s as needed automatically when the POS receives it. Any UPC will be validated with the check digit. If it does not exist or is not correct, we will append or fix the check digit automatically. If the item is missing a check digit or it is wrong, we will add a check digit. Example: 11 digits gets check added, 12 digits with wrong check digit get check digit added and item goes from UPCA to EAN-13
