INTRODUCTION
The Barcode Labeler is professional bar code label design software with certain desktop publishing capabilities. It is designed specifically to work with your business software and database applications. The printing of these labels can be done using any printer that supports a Microsoft Windows driver. Bar code labels, address labels are some examples of what can be created. It will easily integrate with any inventory, ERP or POS application for bar code label generation. These labels can be used to track inventory or people in Shops, Warehouses, Government or Corporations. The Barcode Labeler supports several drawing objects including text, lines, rectangles, ellipses, and bar codes. Each of these drawing objects has full edit capabilities. The draw style, size, position, and color are some of the edit properties. In addition, practically any picture can be imported or exported onto the label design or linked to the original file. An object properties box presents the edit properties to the user and allows precision sizing and positioning of each object.
PURPOSE
In currently, most of the readers will be having provisions only for reading from specified set of articles. The reader will not accept labels which are specified in other languages or formats. Hence the existing system will not have proper security as well as inability to read according to the wish of user.
SCOPE
The proposed ‘Barcode Labeler’ System includes all the factors of the existing system but in more efficient way. Proposed system is developed in C#.NET under MS SQL SERVER 2005 as back end and 2D barcode algorithm is used for the implementation .Only authorized users can enter in to the system on entering the correct User name and Password. So unauthorized users cannot access system..
OVERALL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT PERSPECTIVE
The barcode labeler system allows users to read barcode labels as input through barcode scanner ,the software allows administrator to permit authorised users only . The users needs to log in to the software to use the software.
The barcode printing is another feature of the software ,which prints out and stores the barcode for future use.
PRODUCT FUNCTIONS
Barcode Generation
Valid user can generate new barcode and also can take printouts of newly generated barcodes.
Barcode Reading
Valid user can read the different types of barcodes with the help of laser barcode scanner.
USER CHARACTERISTICS
With a valid username and password the user can log on to the system. There is also an option for change password.
ASSUMPTIONS
1. Ability to put cut marks for labels.
2. Serialize label with auto increment/decrement feature.

4. Import text files or Microsoft Excel worksheets.
5. Precision sizing and positioning of drawing objects.
6. Import-Export BMP and other images.
SYSTEM ANALYSIS
System analysis is an important activity that takes place when a new system is being built. It is the central intact of system development and it includes gathering and interpreting facts, diagnosing and using this information to recommended improvements to the system. System analysis gives the structure and functioning of the system and it specifies what the system should do. It is helpful to understand the problem and emphasize what is needed from the system.
Before designing a computer system, which will satisfy the information requirements of an organization, it is important that the nature of the business and the way it currently operates are clearly understood. The process of system investigation includes several methods of gathering the required information .It is important that the approach is appropriate to the system under consideration and the user of the system. System analysis should be creative and imaginative in producing new solutions to meet the user requirements. In brief the system is analyzed by gathering various information such as system functionality, problems encountered, requirement of the proposed system, users, their tasks and responsibilities.
EXISTING SYSTEM
In currently, most of the readers will be having provisions only for reading from specified set of articles. The reader will not accept labels which are specified in other languages or formats. Hence the existing system will not have proper security as well as inability to read according to the wish of user.
