Track & Trace Training Modules
(For pharmaceutical and other regulated packaging industry)

In order to improve the speed and accuracy of computer data entry, Barcodes are widely used to implement Auto ID Data Capture (AIDC) systems.

Barcodes are widely used to implement Auto ID Data Capture (AIDC) systems that improve the speed and accuracy of computer data entry. There are different formats of barcodes known as barcode symbologies. For retail the GS1 System of standards is the most widely-used supply-chain standards system in the world.

For internal use, then there are many barcode symbologies to choose from including Code 39 & Code 128. These are referred to as linear or 1D barcodes. In pharmaceutical industry 2D datamatrix barcodes are also becoming more prevalent as they have the ability to hold much more information other than a number. 2D barcodes can store over 2000 characters.
