What is GTIN?
GTIN stands for Global Trade Item Number.
GTIN is a globally unique 14-digit number used to identify trade items, products, or services. GTIN can be encoded in a variety of GS1 (EAN.UCC) global data structures that employ 14 digits. The full 14-digit GTIN is created on a data carrier of shorter length by padding’ the number with left-justified zeros out to 14 digits.
The UPC, EAN, SCC are not going away; GTIN is a new term referring to how the data is stored, i.e., padding the item number with zeroes to a uniform length. Most scanners in use will already scan any bar code within the GTIN symbologies. The storage of the numbers and the way information is being exchanged is more the issue of change.
