We do it by using one barcode with Tabs - not sure where Epicor are coming from
there. At the end of the day a barcode is literally like typing into the box,
tabbing, typing again, tabbing etc.

Hi Jeremey,
The functionality to combine multiple bar codes for entering data into the Job,
Assembly and Operation fields is no longer available in Vantage 8.00 and higher
versions. There were validations added to program which prevents this. There are
no plans to add this back into Vantage or Epicor 9. Please let me know if you
have any other questions on this issue.
