Hi,

You are using the right websites for checking the end digit. However SAP is able to run a check on the value entered including the check digit. As far as I know it is not possible to have SAP generating the checkdigit itself. However you have bought a number range from GS1 or one of its affiliates, how do you deal with that?

Regards,

Toon

Dear Gurus,
How can we add the UPC calculator to SAP MM01,so the system can

calculate the ending checkdigit for us?Currently when we need to

calculate the ending checkdigit for upc codes we go to an online

site(http://www.gs1.org/barcodes/support/check_digit_ca lculator), key

the number, calculate the ending digit, copy and paste into MM01.
If we key the 14 digit upc ending in 0, the system message can then

tell us what the corrected digit should be or change it automatically

for us. Currently the message says "the EAN xxx has an incorrect

checkdigit"
example temp upc-key 55000011564120 and the message should say "ending

digit should be 6" or the system can change to 0 to a 6 for us.
example real upc-00036000915450 and the message should say "ending

digit should be 7" or the system can change to 7 for us.
We have to key the zero on the end or the system adds a leading zero

up front (to make the full 14 digits) and just accepts.

Website we use to calculate the ending digits is

http://www.gs1.org/barcodes/support/check_digit_ca lculator

Please guide me to solve this Issue.
or whats should be the configuration i need to do.
for any further clarification please do let me know.

Thanks in advance.
Karan
