I have faced rather weird issue and don't know how to fix this. I received my order from Mouser and while scanning received items one by one I have found out some of these gives error about "existing barcode". Surprisingly, scanning barcodes on these few problematic items via Android opens "supplier item", and it's the correct one. I checked the database records, and these supplier items does not have barcode fields set.
So... I assume the system somehow checks the barcode, even if it's not assigned to anything yet, and if it corresponds to supplier item, just reports with error it's already in the system.
I of course can generate my own barcode label to these received items with misbehaving barcodes, but curious if this barcode supplier check can somehow be turned off?
Just to avoid unnecessary questions: the behavior is the same if I configure Mouser barcode plugin to point to Mouser supplier, or not.
Thanks.
