Sage 100 Contractor can interpret part numbers to appear as barcodes using special barcode fonts. There are two barcode fonts that install with Sage 100 Contractor. They are BC C39 3 to 1 HD Wide and BC UPC HD Wide. When you edit the font for tkfprt.recnum to one of the barcode fonts, then it appears as a barcode in a report and can be printed as a label.
