[Bug 1082981] [NEW] Generic barcode field needed over EAN13

 

Public bug reported:

EAN13 is a European standard. Other parts of the world do not use EAN13.
This field provided by OpenERP is not generic enough. IMO, EAN13 should
be in a separate module that can be installed on demand. There should
also be a generic barcode field that supports more standardized barcode
formats like 3of9, UPC, CODE128, etc


It just doesnt make sense to have a field EAN13 and call it the fits all solution, when really this only makes sense if you are in Europe, Not to mention, because EAN13 requires 13 digits it makes it impossible to use any other type of code.
