7.SGTIN96 code conversion
This function is used to generate a code according to the SGTIN96 standard when a company prefix, item reference,
filter value, and serial number are applied. For the time being, the usage method is explained by using an example in
which the following numbers have been applied. All numbers below are in decimals.
Company prefix: 003885
Item reference: 4006606
Filter value: 0 (Select the filter value from the filter value standard table described earlier according to the purpose
of use. In this example, the filter value is 0 from "All Others")
Serial number: 000000000001 (fixed as 12 digits)
According to the standard, the company prefix and item reference are combined together to result in 13 digits. Of
these 13 digits, the proportion of the company prefix and the item reference can be selected from the seven
combinations described in the table below.
Partition value Number of digit of the company prefix
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
In the case shown in this example, the following combination is assumed:
Number of digits of the company prefix: 6
Number of digits of item reference: 7If both items combined together do not form 13 digits, 0 is entered
before the number to fill up the lacking number of digits.
The partition value is 6, but since this value is generated within the PC, it need not be specified.
