Barcode Scanning to Prevent Enteral Nutrition Errors

I'm wondering for those who barcode scan enteral nutrition products, are they included on the MAR? If so, how do you organize the MAR, and have you seen any issues? If not, where is documentation and how do you incorporate barcode scanning? We are interested in exploring this in Epic, and appreciate any input from those who have already implemented. Thank you.
