Hi Lori, 

We use uppercase letters in our barcodes, for example A70022330679B, and
have never had a problem with Koha and these type of Barcodes.

Our patrons records, in their barcode having the leading zeros, for example
008910067. We have also never had a problem with Koha and these Barcodes.

>From my experience, they are both perfectly good to use with Koha.

Kindest Regards,
Joel
