Barcodes not working anymore

I have an inventory sheet that I have put together for our small business inventory. I have many items already entered with barcodes I generated myself online. Everything was working great until yesterday. I had some new items I needed to enter. I went through the same process I have been using. I go to test the search feature and scan my new barcodes. I was given the message that the Item I had scanned was not found in the sheet. I tried creating new barcodes, restarting the app, and logging out and back in. Nothing worked. Does anyone have any experience with this. I have already put in a lot of time and effort. I am using the same exact barcode generator that I used from the beginning, and now I am stuck.

  • When I scan the barcode on the left (same barcode that is in the yellow line) I get the above response. This is the response I get for all barcodes created yesterday through today. I have tried making new barcodes and replacing them and that didn't work either. It's like the app is not searching properly. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and that didn't work either

    Hi @Felicia1211

    It looks like the barcode number in the image is different than the number in the cell; the barcode scanner will bring in the numbers to search (as in your first image), but the SKU with the numbers in the cell end in 833, not 8331.

    Is it possible this cell was edited accidentally? You can right-click and check the cell history if that helps.
