12 digit barcoding - masking

Hi Guys -

Wondering if anyone out there has been able to 'mask' a barcode to make it 12 digits no matter how long the actual barcode is?

We need our Tessitura barcode to be 12 digits long as we have an external company scanning for access control to one venue of ours - they have a requirement that it has to be 12 digits long - so far we are up to 6 digits, but we need it to be 12

Ideas Tessitura goers??

    Hi Ranie

    That’s why it does the trick with adding 12 zeros at the front, then trimming it down to 12 digits – it’s a simple way of ensuring that it doesn’t matter how many digits there are in your original number, there will always be exactly 12 in the output.
