Dealing With Barcodes Longer Than 10 Characters In Length
TapeTrack has a Volume-ID limit of 10 characters in length. Any volumes with an ID longer than 10 characters must be modified to fit within this criteria.
There are several ways in which can be achieved, such as truncation, translation or hashing.
Truncation
Truncating a barcode, or volume-id, involves trimming off the start or end down to 10 or fewer characters.
