Gift Voucher Barcode Length
From EnablerWiki
Created: 29 January 2009. Last Reviewed: 29 January 2009
Due to the quality of print required for barcodes to be scanned, the size of the printed barcodes on Enabler generated Gift Voucher dockets must be sufficient for them to be easily scanned when redeemed.
This introduces a limitation due to the width of receipt paper, the Barcode length can only be up to 15 characters wide for the barcode to fit on one line.
In some situations where encryption is used for the Voucher numbers, the barcode can end up being 16 or more characters wide. This results in the barcode 'wrapping' onto a new line.
To redeem the voucher, both parts of the barcode can be scanned one after the other, and when combined, will enter the full number into the Enabler Voucher Redemption screen.
