12.5 GTIN Format Conversion
Enabling the GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) format conversion allows UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8, and Interleaved
2of5 (14-digit) data to output in the GTIN format. It also allows RSS (GS1 DataBar) and GS1-128(EAN-128) data in the
GTIN format to output in the EAN format (product code format).
Note: Under any of the following conditions, the GTIN format conversion is invalid.
- In scanning bar code types specified for multi-line barcode scanning
- In any of the data edit modes (data extraction mode, data substitution mode, data blocksorting mode, and ADF script mode)
(1) Conversion from UPC/EAN/Interleaved 2of5 (14-digit) to GTIN format
Conversion provides two choices--16- and 14-digit GTIN formats. The former adds the Application Identifier (AI) "01" and
Package Indicator PI as a prefix, and the latter, a PI only.
If the GTIN format conversion is enabled, however, the output formats available for UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, and EAN8 do
not apply.
