# Creating Custom Barcodes for Easy Scanning with the FieldPulse Mobile App

> Generate Code-128 barcodes with a free web tool so the mobile app can scan your items, inventory, and assets.

We've had customers ask about creating barcodes that the FieldPulse mobile app can scan. While the FieldPulse platform does not provide the ability to generate custom barcodes, [we recommend using this free online tool](https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/Code128) to create your own. You can then efficiently track your items, inventory, or assets within FieldPulse using our barcode scanner.

***Note: FieldPulse is compatible with the Code-128 format.***

# How to Generate Custom Barcodes

Navigate to the specified online barcode generator tool: [https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/Code128](https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/Code128)

A ZIP file containing each of your barcode numbers saved as separate image files (e.g., .png or .jpg) will be generated and downloaded.
