Barcodes (bar codes) do not need to be created for each product

When labels are printed through Checkout, the software will print the contents of the product barcode field. If that field is empty, Checkout will use the product's unique code to create a barcode.

Barcodes should be 5 to 8 alphabetic characters or numbers, or a combination of either.
