Yes. Instead of generating new ones, you can simply scan or type the existing barcode number into the Item Code field in Vyapar to use it for billing.
Which barcode format does Vyapar support?
Vyapar generally supports standard 1D barcode formats, which are compatible with almost all laser and thermal barcode scanners.
