When I scan a student barcode it has a P in front of the student number. How can I program the scanner, so it ignores the P. The instructions that came with the scanner don’t have that option.

Do the student IDs include that P for their number? I’m wondering how it’s getting added.

There might be some coding magic you can add in through the scanner setup (linked below), but I’m not super familiar with it.

As ​@AMeyer Greendale Schools As suggested, is the P on the student number within your system? If it is a barcode, the scanner should be able to read the whole barcode. The barcode simulator is a great resource for you to utilize! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
