Step 1: Open a database

Add the entries to the database by using the table to enter the first name, last name, number, and class of each entry. It is possible to import entries from a TechStar export, TechStar database, or other CSV file.
Step 3: Add barcodes for each entry
After selecting an entry, the associated barcodes will be shown in the barcodes table. Add barcodes by using a scanner or manually typing them in. The type can be selected by using the adjacent drop down menu. If a duplicate barcode is entered, the background will turn red to indicate an error.
