I am implementing barcodes at the moment also.

My current plan is to append them to our human-readable internal
partnumbers:

  12345-ACME-WIDGET-01-INCH UPC:098765321

The reason is that the partnumber field is the 'search parts' field in
most/all areas of LedgerSBM.

A barcode reader does return a unique search result if scanning
"098765321" in the above example.

Additional program customization and/or template work will be necessary
to print barcodes on your LedgerSMB documents.

Any other ideas on barcode field storage?
