Global Trade Item Numbers (GTIN)

As businesses become interconnected using various technology options such as


EDI and XML, there is a need for global product identification standards that are
usable by all trading partners in the extended supply chain. A major goal of these
standards is to guarantee unique and unambiguous identification of products and
services across the supply chain. Regional and trade standard associations such as
Mobile User Interface and Warehouse Management B-13
ISBN, NDC, EAN, and Uniform Code Council (UCC) govern the policies and standards
for product identification. The following list shows some industries and the common
product identification standards used:
• Automotive Aftermarket (GTIN)
• Books (International Standard Book Number - ISBN)
• MRO - Industrial Supply (GTIN)
• Paper (GTIN)
• Healthcare (GTIN)
• Periodicals (International Standard Serial Number - ISSN)
• Pharmaceutical (National Drug Code - NDC)
• Grocery (GTIN)
• General Merchandise (GTIN)
The widely used EAN.UCC product identification standards are industry neutral and
global in scope. One of the main concepts of the EAN.UCC product identification
standard is that any item used at any point in any supply chain can be allocated a unique
identification number - the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN).
GTIN is an umbrella term used to describe the family of EAN.UCC data structures for
trade item identification. The four data structures in the GTIN family are:
• EAN.UCC-13
• EAN.UCC-12
• EAN.UCC-14
