A Zebra Technologies White Paper
Conclusion
The primary challenge to outputting bar codes from
SAP applications has been getting the software and
printer to speak the same language. Now, SAP and
Zebra bar code label printers speak the same language
– ZPL. SAP users who use versions prior to 4.6c must
either use the upload method or middleware to enable
bar code label output. Zebra recommends its Zebra
BAR-ONE for mySAP™ Business Suite software.
SAP customers using versions 4.6c and onwards can
use the upload method, middleware, or Smart Forms.
Zebra believes that Smart Forms provides the best
ROI, maximising existing skills and infrastructure.
Companies using SAP NetWeaver should also consider
Interactive Forms, the latest generation of
SAP forms technology. This new tool developed in
conjunction with Adobe Systems, a long-time partner
of both SAP and Zebra, offers drag-and-drop support
for bar codes and includes native support for a single
bar code printer manufacturer – Zebra.
A variety of effective solutions for enabling bar code
output from SAP have been developed. To find the best
method for their operations, companies must assess
their label and form printing needs, legacy printer base
and replacement schedule, and available SAPscript /
ABAP programming resources. By matching the
method to the enterprise environment, companies can
successfully satisfy their SAP bar code printing needs.
Zebra Technologies supports all the SAP printing
methods described in this paper. Together with our
partners we have successfully completed more than
1,000 SAP printing installations, using BAR-ONE
and other upload software, print servers, output
management software, and direct printing from SAP.
