I have been tasked with evaluating how we may use barcodes.

I know there are different types (UPC, EAN, CODE 39, CODE 128, ITF, CODE 93, CODABAR, GS1, MSI, QR CODE, DATA MATRIX, PDF 417, AZTEC, etc).

Which ones does Odoo support?

What can I do with barcodes in Odoo?  I assume I can scan a product, but what else can I scan?  What information can I encode in barcodes?

Hi, Odoo supports any sequence as barcode, this way you can always define your own barcode format for internal use. Apart from scanning products, you can perform actions such as:

- Receive products (pick in orders)

- Dispatch products (pick out orders)

- Inventory adjustments

- Internal inventory movements

Hope this helps you.

See https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/14.0/addons/web/controllers/main.py#L2077 for the full list of what types are supported:

Accepted types: 'Codabar', 'Code11', 'Code128', 'EAN13', 'EAN8', 'Extended39',
'Extended93', 'FIM', 'I2of5', 'MSI', 'POSTNET', 'QR', 'Standard39', 'Standard93',
'UPCA', 'USPS_4State'

Regarding the information that you can encode, exclusively letters and numbers, so that they form bar codes.
