Weighing Scale Barcodes

Weighing scale barcode software: scan the label, item and exact weight go on the bill.

Potatoes, sabzi, fruit, meat, dry fruit, mithai — weighed items print a barcode that changes with every weighing. PaakiShop reads the item and its weight straight from the label of your Black Copper RLS1000 or any label scale. No more typing "aaloo" and the weight by hand.

Why your scale labels don't scan in normal POS software

The label scale writes the item code and the weight inside the barcode. 0.600 kg, 0.650 kg and 0.700 kg of the same potatoes give three different barcodes — so software that looks for one fixed barcode finds nothing, and the cashier types the item and weight by hand.

From scale to bill in three steps

1

Set the item code once

Open the item (e.g. Potato) and put the scale's PLU in its Barcode field — for example 123. Sell it in kg with the price per kg.

2

Weigh and print

Weigh on the label scale exactly as you do today and stick the printed label on the bag.

3

Scan at the counter

Scan the label on POS or the sales invoice. The item, the exact weight and the amount appear — scan the next label straight away.

Works everywhere you sell

POS counter

Scan into the POS search. The same item merges into one cart line with the total weight (0.650 + 0.400 = 1.050 kg).

Sales invoices

Use the line Scan box or the product search. A new line opens and waits for the next label.

Offline desktop app

The PaakiShop Offline application reads labels with no internet and syncs to paakishop.com later.

Weight or price labels

If your scale prints the total price instead, PaakiShop works out the weight from the item's rate.

Mis-scan protection

The check digit is verified, so a smudged label is refused instead of billing the wrong weight.

Matches your scale

Settings → Weighing Scale: prefix, item-code length, grams or kg, with a live "Test a label" box.

Weighing scale barcode software — FAQ

Why does my scale barcode change every time?

A label scale writes the item code and the weight (or price) inside the barcode, so 0.650 kg and 0.700 kg of potatoes give different barcodes. Ordinary POS software looks for one fixed barcode and fails. PaakiShop reads the item code and weight out of the label.

Which weighing scales work with PaakiShop?

Any label scale that prints a standard in-store EAN-13 barcode, such as the Black Copper RLS1000 and most price-computing label scales sold in Pakistan. The prefix, item-code length and weight or price mode can be matched in Settings → Weighing Scale.

Do I need to connect the scale to the computer?

No. The scale prints the label and any ordinary USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner reads it into PaakiShop. No cable or driver between the scale and the computer is needed.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. The PaakiShop Offline desktop application reads scale labels with no internet and sends the sales to paakishop.com when the connection is back.

Will my normal product barcodes still work?

Yes. Only valid scale labels (prefix 20–29 with a correct check digit) are read as weight labels. Every other barcode works exactly as before.

Stop typing weights by hand

Scale label, scanner, PaakiShop — the item and the exact weight in one beep.
