I am trying to update our inventory system to Smartsheets and I want to take a picture of a Barcode and instead of geting the picture of the Bar Code I am getting just the numbers. How can I go about fixing this?
Hi Justin,
iOS or Android? On iOS, there are two choices, a barcode scan or camera.
I hope this helps you!

Andree,
I am using an iOS system. I have tried using both and only the camera feature works.
I would prefer to use the Barcode scan instead any thoughts?
Where in the sheet are you when you're trying to take a photo of the barcode?
on the desk in my office. I am working on a demo to make sure it is going to work before i label the boxes
I meant on the Smartsheet sheet, which cell, column type and so on. Maybe it isn't working because what you're trying isn't supported.
I am in the barcode tab
The only thing is that the barcode does have letters in it as well. Does that matter or will that work and also is there specific types of barcode fonts that can be used?
No that doesn't matter because it scans the letters also. Can you take a screenshot and share with me so that I can see where you are trying to take a photo?
Here you have what codes that are supported: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2476211-using-the-smartsheet-app-for-ios#scanbarcodes
Here is the screenshot of where I am trying to place the barcode.
Strange, it works for me. Can you share the sheet or make a copy of it and share that?
I just sent you the share of the copy of the sheet for you to review for me and to see what I might be doing wrong
Thanks!
I tried all the options, and it works for me. Can you try with another barcode to see if that works and can you also take a picture of the barcode that isn't working?
I tried a different bar code and got the same results.
I have attached a copy of the barcode that is not working.
You did this as a picture not the barcode scan which is what I was trying to do on the app itself.
Is that the only thing that is working currently on the app the picture version
I tried all the options. I'll upload how it looks on my side on my iPhone. Can you check if you see something that's not the same for you?
Sure.
Please let me know when you have uploaded.
Thanks
Hello, I'm working through the writing formulas optional activity and in the 'Nested IF function - Progress Column' task it directs you to put in the following formula '=IF([% Complete]@row = 0, “Empty”)'. However, when I put this formula into the spreadsheet, '04a_Marketing Request Tracker - Formulas', I get an…
I have an automation that has a condition where I am looking at the column "LEA Interco Supporting Site(s)" and trying to find columns that have the value "Fort Loramie" in them. This works well when "Fort Loramie" is the first item listed in the cell, but it doesn't work when "Fort Loramie" is the second or third value in…
Have any of you created a Smartsheet that would show the savings for a project by the month? In other words, if I saved $1200 annually and the project ended in say March, then the savings would go $120 per month, Mar 2025-Feb 2026. I have done it on Excel sheets manually, but I think there should be a way to do it with…
