+Asks: Split barcodes on the following separator chars \_\_\_ in batch item
+modification and inventory.
+
+Description:
+
+- When importing barcode files in the :ref:`inventory tool <inventory-tool-label>`
+ or the :ref:`batch item modification tool <batch-item-modification-label>`
+ you can decide which character separates each barcode.
+
+ **Important**
+
+ You must use the regular expression codes for the characters.
+
+ - \\s is used for a whitespace
+
+ - \\r is used for a carriage return
+
+ - \\n is used for a new line
+
+ - \\t is used for a tab
+
+ Make sure you escape the other characters you put in there by preceding
+ them with a backslash
+
+ - \\. instead of a dot
+
+ - \\\ instead of a backslash
+
+ - \\- instead of a hyphen
