You can have two fields overlap in your RPG data structure.
Display one on the scanner screen and hide the other one.

I have a situation where I'm simply out of real estate.
Scanning application on very small screens where I need to display a
portion of a 20-digit barcode.

I was wonder if there is a way to "overlay" a hidden field.
I could store the entire value in a hidden field, but only display the
last 6 characters.

Is there a way to do that? Or is it simpler to keep track of it in the
backend program?
