Converts data elements into the format required for EPC QR Codes.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrinting.BarCode.EPC

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Printing.Core

Declaration

public class EPCDataConverter

Remarks

EPC QR Codes allow users to initiate a SEPA credit transfer (SCT).The following guideline contains general information about this type of barcodes and defines the data format for EPC QR Codes: Quick Response Code - Guidelines to Enable the Data Capture for the Initiation of a SEPA Credit Transfer.

The line endings that separate data elements depend on the platform: Linux and Mac use LF; Windows uses CRLF.

The following code snippet transforms separate data elements into a string that conforms to the guideline and passes it to the barcode’s Text property:

BCD
001
1
SCT
BPOTBEB1
Red Cross of Belgium
BE72000000001616
EUR20.00
CHAR

Urgency fund
Sample EPC QR code
using DevExpress.XtraPrinting.BarCode;
using DevExpress.XtraPrinting.BarCode.EPC;
using DevExpress.XtraReports.UI;
//...

XRBarCode barCode = new XRBarCode();
barCode.Symbology = new QRCodeEPCGenerator();

//...

var epcData = new EPCDataConverter() {
    Version = EPCVersion.Version1,
    BIC = "BPOTBEB1",
    BeneficiaryName = "Red Cross of Belgium",
    IBAN = "BE72000000001616",
    TransferAmount = 20,
    TransferPurpose = "CHAR",
    RemittanceInformation = "Urgency Fund",
    Information = "Sample EPC QR code"
};

barCode.Text = epcData.StringData;

The resulting EPC QR Code is shown below:
