2.4.1 General Identi?¬?er
The General Identi?¬?er (GID-96) is a generic scheme which can be used when the other
schemes may not be applicable. It consists of three ?¬?elds:
. General Manager Number which identi?¬?es an organizational entity that is responsible
for maintaining the numbers in subsequent ?¬?elds and ensuring uniqueness
among the ?¬?elds under its domain
. The Object Class used by that entity to identify a class or ??????type??™??™ of object, and
which must be unique within each General Manager Number domain
. The Serial Number code, or serial number, is unique within each object class
For the rest of the encoding schemes, there are rules for converting an EAN.UCC (GS1)
scheme to a serialized EPC code.
2.4.2 Serialized Global Trade Item Number
The Serialized Global Trade Item Number (SGTIN) consists of the following ?¬?elds:
. The Company Pre?¬?x, assigned by GS1 to a managing entity
. The Item Reference, assigned by the managing entity to a particular object class
. The Serial Number, assigned by the managing entity to an individual object
The serial number is not part of the GTIN code, but is formally a part of the SGTIN.
