Breeze will automatically populate the template with each person's Breeze ID, First Name, Last Name, and any already-existing barcodes. 

Understanding Fields on the File

Examples

Breeze ID
If a person is not in the database, add them. If there’s a large number of people not in the database, bulk import them. Be sure that the person is not in the database with a slightly different name as creating them as a new person will create a duplicate person. If duplicates are created, they can be merged (individually).
