You are using an 'EAN13' type of barcode in your Delivery Note form template. 'EAN13' barcodes always add a checksum digit at the end. This is the standard behavior of 'EAN13' barcodes.

For GTIN with 12, 13 and 14 digits, you can use a barcode type which does not add a check digit at the end of the barcode. In barcode type 'Code 128' for example, no checksum digit is added.
