Learn why certain product barcodes do not scan

Kubo Inventory scans square codes (QR) and linear barcodes. If you find, however, that some of your products are not scanning they may not be valid.

Valid barcodes are shown below—they all have a string of numbers under the barcode and either proceeded by either an (01) or a '+' sign. If not, the barcode is likely an internal use barcode only and is not valid.

Internal use barcodes are either UPC codes or other images without the number sequences as noted above. These are not valid and cannot be viewed by Kubo Inventory.

Below you can see two examples of implant-related products with valid barcodes. The first has the square QR code and a string of numbers starting with (01) and the next is a linear barcode with a string of numbers below starting with a '+' sign.
