When creating barcodes for scanning multiple account fields you need to create barcodes that contain a 1 or 2 digit prefix. Use Accounting Prefixes to define the prefixes.
You can use this if you are transferring accounts from another accounting system or from a set of pre-printed barcodes.
As you scan a barcode, the meter reads the value of the field and enters that value in the appropriate field in Run Mail.
