My other issue is unrelated and deals with the autogenerated barcode when adding an item. In my autobarode setting, I have EAN-Incremental 13 Barcode selected. When creating a new item for a record, the system does autofill the barcode field however the formatting however it shows up in scientific number format rather than just integers or plain text. 

For example, A barcode we use should look like this:

345171000448832

However, in the form, it fills something like this:

3.45171000471993e+19

Converting that to a real number, I get 34517100047199300000 which is too large/too many digits. I cannot just lop off the extra zeros. I would like to understand how that service works and what to try to get it working correctly.
