Application Identifiers

An Application Identifier (AI) is a 2–4 digit number.
It tells the software “behind” the barcode scanner the meaning and format of the digits and/or letters that follow the AI.

The data following an Application Identifier may be either alphanumeric or numeric. Depending on the specific AI, the number of characters that follow may be fixed (a mandatory length) or variable.

Each AI may only be used once per product/package level.

00 Serial Shipping Container Code

Application Identifier
00
Dataformat
n2+n18

The Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) is used to identify logistic units.
This means that, for example, two identical pallets containing the same product are uniquely identified by their own individual SSCC.

In situations where a product needs to be traceable, it is important that each individual shipment is uniquely identified. The SSCC is one of the most important keys to information relating to a specific shipping unit.

Structure of the SSCC

The structure of the SSCC is as follows:

  • First digit (Extension Digit, Vs1): Indicates a company-assigned extension digit. The company may choose which digit (0–9) to use.
  • Next 7 digits (P1–R7): Indicate the Company Prefix, which consists of the GS1 Prefix and the company’s reference number.
  • Next 9 digits (F1–F9): Assigned by the company and represent a sequential serial number.
  • Last digit (K): A check digit.

Together, all 18 digits form a globally unique serial number used to identify a logistic unit.

Extension Digit (0–9)
Company Prefix (GS1 Prefix + company reference number)
Serial Reference
Check Digit

SSCC numbers assigned to shipping units may only be reused for other units after a minimum of 12 months.

01 GTIN number (Global Trade Item Number)

Application Identifier 01 is used to identify a trade item with a GTIN: GTIN-13, GTIN-14 or GTIN-12.

AI (01) is used when identifying a standard unit, such as a case or a pallet containing the same items each time the case or pallet is ordered.

When identifying with GTIN-13 or GTIN-12, leading zeros are added so that all 14 digits in the data format are completed.

If the GTIN is prefixed with the digit 9, this indicates that the product is of variable measure. In such cases, it must be used together with either AI 30, 3nnn, or 8001.

If you’d like, I can align the terminology precisely with GS1 General Specifications wording.

02 GTIN Contained in Another Unit

Application Identifier 02 is used to indicate the GTIN of the contents within another unit and must always be used together with Application Identifier 37 (count) and Application Identifier 00 (Serial Shipping Container Code).

AI 02 may only be used on a logistic unit.

Example

A customer orders three identical cases, and the supplier has not defined a trade item corresponding to the three cases. The cases are placed on a wooden pallet, stretch-wrapped, and labelled with: AI 02 for the contents (the GTIN of the cases), AI 37 for the quantity (3), AI 00 for the SSCC

GTIN number + quantity:

10 Batch/lotnummer​

Application Identifier 10 is used to indicate a unit’s batch/lot number.

A batch number may contain various types of information, such as production line number, production time, batch/blend number, etc. What these elements have in common is that a given product can be traced using this batch number.

The receiving company does not need to know the structure of the batch/lot number.

Note: Most retailers will only accept one batch number per pallet.

AI 10 must appear together with either AI 01 or AI 02.

Application Identifiers for Dates

Application Identifiers 11, 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 are used to indicate different types of dates. When dates are indicated on a logistic unit, they refer to the units contained within the shipping unit.

If the products within a unit have different dates, the earliest date must always be selected.

All date AIs have a fixed data format of n2+n6, where the n6 format is YYMMDD.

All date AIs must appear together with AI 01 or AI 02.

Example

1 July 1999 is indicated as 990701

Example

The end of August 1999 is indicated as 990800

Example

15 June 2000 is indicated as 000615

Example

26 November 2001 is indicated as 011126

When indicating dates, only the last two digits of the year are used:

  • Year 1999 = 99
  • Year 2000 = 00
  • Year 2001 = 01

Note: Most retailers will only accept one production/expiry date per pallet.

It is often used for food products with a very short shelf life.

20 Intern produktvariant​

Application Identifier
20
Dataformat
n2+n2

Application Identifier 20 anvendes til at angive en intern produktvariant af et standard produkt. En virksomhed ønsker f.eks. at skelne mellem to ens produkter fra forskellige produktionssteder og anvender således produktvariant sammen med GTIN.

Produktvariant må kun anvendes af brand owner og i tilfælde, hvor der ikke er tilstrækkelig stor variation af produktet til, at et andet GTIN nummer skal tildeles.

En virksomhed skal minimum vente 12 måneder med at genbruge samme produktvariant til en anden variant indenfor samme produkt.

AI 20 skal optræde sammen med AI 01 eller AI 02.

21 Primært serienummer​

Serienummeret skal være entydig for et specifikt produkt, men det samme serienummer kan tildeles flere forskellige produkter. Sammen med GTIN nummeret giver serienummeret en entydig identifikation af det enkelte produkt.

AI 21 skal optræde sammen med AI 01.

22 Retail Trade Item Variant

Application Identifier
22
Dataformat
n2 + x..20

AI 22 is used when there is a need to distinguish between two retail trade items where the difference between the two products does not require the assignment of separate GTINs, but communication between trading partners is necessary to support end users.

The retail trade item variant is assigned by the brand owner.

240 Leverandørens supplerende produktidentifikation​

Application Identifier
240
Dataformat
n3+x..30

AI 240 skal optræde sammen med AI 01 eller AI 02.

241 Kundens supplerende produktidentifikation​

Application Identifier
241
Dataformat
n3+x..30

Application Identifier 241 anvendes til kundens supplerende produktidentifikation. Det kan anvendes i en situation, hvor kunden har tildelt et givent produkt et eget internt nummer, selvom produktet allerede er identificeret ved et GTIN nummer. Det anbefales, at virksomheder ikke anvender AI 241, med mindre det er strengt nødvendigt, da AI 241 skal opfattes som en midlertidig løsning, indtil GTIN produktnumre anvendes fuldt ud.

AI 241 erstatter ikke AI 01 for GTIN nummer, som den primære identifikation af produktet. AI 241 skal altid anvendes sammen med AI 01 eller AI 02.

242 Made-to-order (MTO) / Variant nummer

Application Identifier 242
Dataformat n3+n..6

Application Identifier 250 indicates a secondary serial number. AI 250 is used in conjunction with AI 21, which indicates the primary serial number.

The secondary serial number is generated based on the serial number of the “main product”, for example, an enclosure for an electronics product may have a secondary serial number. It is important that the company defines some rules for the use of both primary and secondary serial numbers.

251 Reference til kildeoprindelse​

Application Identifier
251
Dataformat
n3+x..30

Application Identifier 251 anvendes til bl.a. at angive et øremærkenummer.

253 Global Document Type Identifier (GDTI)​

Application Identifier 253
Dataformat n3+n13 +x..17

Application Identifier (AI) 253 specifies a Global Document Type Identifier (GDTI). A GDTI is used to identify a document type, with an optional serial number. The GS1 Company Prefix forms the first digits of the GDTI and ensures that the number is globally unique. The structure and content of the GDTI are determined by the owner of the GS1 Company Prefix and are used to uniquely identify each document type. The digit preceding the optional serial number is a check digit.

The optional serial number is assigned to an individual document for the entire lifetime of that document. When the serial number is combined with the GDTI, the complete number uniquely identifies the individual document.

The structure of the serial number is determined by the document owner.

254 GLN Extension Component​

Application Identifier 254
Dataformat n3+x..20

The GCN provides a globally unique identification for a coupon, with an optional serial number.

The GS1 Company Prefix forms the first digits of the GCN and ensures its global uniqueness. The structure and content of the GCN are determined by the owner of the GS1 Company Prefix and are used to uniquely identify each coupon offer. The digit preceding the optional serial number is a check digit.

The optional serial number is assigned to each individual coupon, and its structure is determined by the coupon issuer. The combination of the GS1 Company Prefix, the coupon reference number, and the serial number uniquely identifies each coupon. The serial number is numeric and may contain up to 12 digits.

30 Variable quantity

Application Identifier
30
Dataformat
n2+n..8

AI 30 is used to specify a number of pieces in a weight variable ordering unit, where the number of pieces varies.

AI 30 should always be used in conjunction with AI 01 for GTIN number. The weight-variable product shall be identified by a GTIN-14 starting with the digit 9.

Application Identifiers for Measurement Units

This section describes the Application Identifiers that exist for unit of measurement. The AIs consist of 4 digits, where the value of the 4th digit (n) indicates the number of decimal places.

The data format for all the AIs is n4+n6.

Example:

(310)! 0) 000035 = 35 kg

(310)! 3) 000035 = 0.035 kg

The 4th digit (n) can be from 0-9, meaning that smallest unit one can specify is:

(310)! 9) 000001 = 0.00000000001 kg

GS1 recommends the metric system (SI system - International System of Units). If other systems are used, it should be noted that there may be a difference between targets in the US and the UK.

The AIs from 3100 to 3699 indicate different types of units of measurement related to trade or logistics.

AI 3nnn (2) shell appear together with AI 01 or AI 02 where the 1st digit is 9.
