# QR/Barcode Generator
### Introduction
Sort Mark lets you generate a code as an image based on your selected parameters (you can also crop the values of those parameters, add suffixes, prefixes, etc.).
The images are placed in the **image-type** parameter.
To see the QR codes or barcodes, you need to make a schedule with the image parameter selected and drop that schedule onto a Sheet.
### Workflow
Let’s look at how to implement the QR / Barcode generator in your workflow:
1. First, determine which category of elements should get the QR or barcode. For this example, let's select the Windows category.
2. After selecting the category, you will be prompted with a window asking you to select a parameter where the new QR or barcode should be written. You can create a new shared parameter for the selected category, or use the built-in **Image** instance parameter.
3. After selecting the parameter in which to enter the new QR or barcode values, a configuration window will open where you will need to enter some settings before generating the new codes.
**1 -** Using the menu at the top, you can save your settings for future use.
**2 -** Here you can see the name of the category and the parameter where the code will be created. Here you can choose the **Code Type** (QR or barcode) and the **size of the image** in pixels.
**3 -** In the **Sort Mark tab**, you can select parameters from the left to compose the value of QR codes or barcodes. You can then add a Prefix, Suffix, and Take or Remove segments of the chosen parameter’s value.
In this case, let's select the **Mark: Instance** parameter.
4. In the **Filtering tab**, you can filter out elements from the chosen category, if needed.
5. Click **OK** to run the configuration. An information dialog will show how many elements of the chosen category have been processed.
### Results
Now, when selecting one of the windows, I can see that the QR code was generated as a .png image in the **Image** parameter.
To see the QR codes, I will need to create a schedule and add the **Image** parameter to it.
Finally, let's create a Sheet, place the schedule and the generated QR code is visible.
