Print barcode labels
Give products a barcode, choose how many labels you need and print them on an A4 sheet or a label roll.
Labels with a barcode make the register and stock counts fast: scan instead of typing. Owlvix can make a barcode for products that don't have one, and prints the name, variant, price and barcode on each label.
Steps
-
Tick the products in the list. In Inventory → Products, tick the boxes next to the products you want labels for. Then click Print labels.
Tick the products -
Generate missing barcodes. Products without a barcode are flagged. Click Generate barcodes to give them one (an in-store EAN-13 code starting with 2).

Set how many labels. Type the number of labels for each product, for example one per item on the shelf.
How many labels -
Choose the layout. A4 sheet prints 3 × 7 labels for any office printer; Label roll prints one 50 × 25 mm label per page for label printers. Untick Show the price if you don't want it.

Tip For one product, use Print labels on its page. Generate barcode there gives it a code.
Good to know
- Products that already have a barcode (from the supplier) keep it. You can type your own in the product's Barcode field.
- The register finds a product by scanning its barcode or SKU in the search box.
