Can I scan a barcode that contains two sets of info but have them populate in two different cells? Could I then have different sets of qtys for each lot?

For example have a SKU# B456 and a Lot# of the item with its own qty.

SKU# B456 Lot#77625 -2

Lot#77888-15

    Hi @Shay23 -- if you make the barcodes this is fairly simple -- just add the tab character -- CHAR(9) -- between your two numbers, and when you scan, the data will scan into two adjacent cells in Smartsheet (or Excel, or any spreadsheet). You can also use the Enter character -- CHAR(10) -- to have the data scan into two cells, one on top of another. Play around -- it's pretty simple to get data to land where you need it.
