I have a report that is a report of items contained in a package.

The data source for this report is from SQL.

I have a field called Fields.PackageID, which in this example is 157893. It will always be a unique number. When I put this field in a textbox, it displays properly. When I put this field into a barcode with font 3 of 9 and scan it, the output is 157893X. Where X is a random letter. Some packages that I scan will give me an S or a P at the end. It varies. Before switching my report to telerik reporting, everything worked as intended. 

Is there a way to troubleshoot this? 

I thought about just shortening the string length by 1 using (ScannedNumber = ScannedNumber.Remove(ScannedNumber.Length - 1)) but when my package count goes into the 7 digit realm, it will start to cause issues. And we also scan other numbers with the program for products.

Thanks!
