1 Translating Your U.P.C. to a GTIN to a SGTIN to an EPC Translation Worksheet Step : Know your U.P.C. Universal Product Code (U.P.C.) Step : Know your U.P.C. Universal Product Code (U.P.C.) Look at your product to obtain your 2-digit U.P.C. bar code number. U.P.C. = U.P.C. = Step 2: Separate the U.P.C. Company Prefix, Item Reference, and Check Digit U.P.C. Company Prefix Item Reference Check The check digit is always the last di git. The division between U.P.C. Company Pr efix and Item Reference can be after the 5 th, th, th, 8 th, th, or th digit. Step 2: Separate the U.P.C. Company Prefix, Item Reference, and Check Digit U.P.C. Company Prefix The check digit is always the last di git. Item Reference Check Find out the length of your U.P.C. Company Pr efix (as issued by GS US) and draw a line to show the separ ation between the U.P.C. Company Pr efix and the Item Reference GS US

2 Step : Add a to the U.P.C. Company Prefix to Obtain a GS Company Prefix U.P.C. Company Prefix Item Reference Check Step : Add a to the U.P.C. Company Prefix to Obtain a GS Company Prefix U.P.C. Company Prefix Item Reference Check = GS Company Prefix Note: You might not fill all boxes, dependi ng on the length of your U.P.C. Company Prefix Step : Add a Indicator to the Item Reference to Obtain the EPC Object Class U.P.C. Company Prefix Item Reference Check Step : Add a Indicator to the Item Reference to Obtain the EPC Object Class U.P.C. Company Prefix Item Reference Check = EPC Object Class Note: You might not fill all boxes, dependi ng on the length of your Item Reference GS US 2

3 Step 5: Add a unique serial number to the GS Company Prefix and EPC Object Class to create an EPC for a specific instance of your product. Dots separate the components of the EPC. Step 5: Add a unique serial number to the GS Company Prefix and EPC Object Class to create an EPC for a specific instance of your product. Dots separate the components of the EPC. EPC = EPC = urn:epc:id:sgtin: urn:epc:id:sgtin:. (GS Company Prefix).. (EPC Object Class). digits total 5 (Serial number) Note: For use in a -bit RFID tag, the ser ial number may be from to 2 digits in length. It must be less than or equal to 28, and the first digit may not be a zero. EPC = urn:epc:id:sgtin:..5 Note: You will not fill all the boxes; the number of boxes filled depends on the length of your company prefi x and the length of your serial number. EPC = urn:epc:id:sgtin: 28 2 GS US

4 Step : Identify the applicable row from the SGTIN- partition table based on the length of your GS Company Prefix (including the leading zero you added in Step ) Step : Identify the applicable row from the SGTIN- partition table based on the length of your GS Company Prefix (including the leading zero you added in Step ) Partition Value (P) GS Company Prefix Indicator/Pad Digit and Item Reference Partition Value (P) GS Company Prefix Indicator/Pad Digit and Item Reference (M) (L) (N) (M) (L) (N) Partition = 5 (-digit GS Company Prefix) Partition = ( -digit GS Company Pr efix) 28 2 GS US

5 Step : Choose a filter value to include on the RFID Tag (in most cases, point of sale trade item is the right choice) Step : Choose a filter value to include on the RFID Tag (in most cases, point of sale trade item is the right choice) Type Filter Value Type Filter Value Unknown Point of Sale (POS) Trade Item Full Case for Transport 2 (Reserved do not use) Inner Pack Trade Item Grouping for Handling (Reserved do not use) 5 Unit Load Unknown Point of Sale (POS) Trade Item Full Case for Transport 2 (Reserved do not use) Inner Pack Trade Item Grouping for Handling (Reserved do not use) 5 Unit Load Unit inside Trade Item or component inside a product not intended for individual sale Unit inside Trade Item or component inside a product not intended for individual sale Filter Value = (POS Trade Item) Filter Value = 28 2 GS US 5

6 Ibc Translation Sample: Step 8: Translate the components from decimal to binary. The partition table (Step ) says how many binary bits to use for the GS Company Prefix and Item Reference. Decimal: EPC Header = 8 Filter = Partition = 5 GS Company Prefix = Indicator + Item Reference = Serial = 5 EPC Header (8 bits) = Filter ( bits) = Partition ( bits) = GS Company Prefix (2 bits) = Indicator + Item Reference (2 bits) = Serial (8 bits) = Step 8: Translate the components from decimal to binary. The partition table (Step ) says how many binary bits to use for the GS Company Prefix and Item Reference. Decimal: EPC Header = 8 Filter = Partition = GS Company Prefix = Indicator + Item Reference = Serial = EPC Header (8 bits) = Filter ( bits) = Partition ( bits) = GS Company Prefix (M bits) = Indicator + Item Reference (N bits) = Serial (8 bits) = 28 2 GS US

7 Step : Concatenate the binary components to get a single -bit string. This is what is programmed into the RFID Tag. Often, it is expressed in hexadecimal Hexadecimal: 25BFB8CB2F Step : Concatenate the binary components to get a single -bit string. This is what is programmed into the RFID Tag. Often, it is expressed in hexadecimal Hexadecimal: 28 2 GS US

8 Translating Your SSCC to an EPC Translation Worksheet Step : Know your Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) SSCC encoded in a GS-28 bar code: Step : Know your Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) SSCC encoded in a GS-28 bar code: Look at your shipping label to obtain your 8-digit SSCC number. SSCC = SSCC = Note: The () shown in the bar code is not part of the SSCC. The SSCC itself is 8 digits Note: The () shown in the bar code is not part of the SSCC. The SSCC itself is 8 digits 28 2 GS US 8

9 Step 2: Separate the Extension Digit, GS Company Prefix, Serial Reference, and Check Digit Step 2: Separate the Extension Digit, GS Company Prefix, Serial Reference, and Check Digit Ext GS Co mpany Prefix 2 Ext GS Co mpany Prefix 5 8 Serial Reference Check Serial Reference Check The extension digit is always the first digit. The check digit is always the last di git. The division between GS Company Pr efix and Serial Reference can be after the th, 8 th, th, th, th, or 2 th digit of the over all SSCC. The extension digit is always the first digit. The check digit is always the last di git. Find out the length of your GS Company Prefix (as issued by GS) and draw a line to show the separation between the GS Company Prefix and the Item Reference GS US

10 Step : Combine the Extension Digit and the Serial Reference to Obtain the Extension+Serial Step : Combine the Extension Digit and the Serial Reference to Obtain the Extension+Serial Ext GS Co mpany Prefix Ext GS Co mpany Prefix Serial Reference Check Serial Reference Check = Ext + Serial = Ext + Serial Note: You might not fill all boxes, dependi ng on the length of your Serial Reference GS US

11 Step : Combine the components to create the EPC corresponding to your SSCC. Dots separate the components of the EPC. Step : Combine the components to create the EPC corresponding to your SSCC. Dots separate the components of the EPC. EPC = EPC = urn:epc:id:sscc: urn:epc:id:sscc:. (GS Company Prefix). 2 5 (Ext+Serial) digits total EPC = urn:epc:id:sscc:.258 Note: You will not fill all the boxes; the number of boxes filled in each row depends on the length of your company prefix. EPC = urn:epc:id:sscc: 28 2 GS US

12 Step 5: Identify the applicable row from the SSCC- partition table based on the length of your GS Company Prefix Step 5: Identify the applicable row from the SSCC- partition table based on the length of your GS Company Prefix Partition Value (P) GS Company Prefix Extension Digit and Serial Reference Partition Value (P) GS Company Prefix Extension Digit and Serial Reference (M) (L) (N) (M) (L) (N) Partition = 5 (-digit GS Company Prefix) Partition = ( -digit GS Company Pr efix) 28 2 GS US 2

13 Step : Choose a filter value to include on the RFID Tag (in most cases, unit load or full case for transport is the right choice) Step : Choose a filter value to include on the RFID Tag (in most cases, unit load or full case for transport is the right choice) Type Filter Value Type Filter Value Unknown (Reserved do not use) Full Case for Transport 2 (Reserved do not use) (Reserved do not use) (Reserved do not use) 5 Unit Load (Reserved do not use) Unknown (Reserved do not use) Full Case for Transport 2 (Reserved do not use) (Reserved do not use) (Reserved do not use) 5 Unit Load (Reserved do not use) Filter Value = (Unit Load) Filter Value = 28 2 GS US

14 Ibc Translation Sample: Step : Translate the components from decimal to binary. The partition table (Step 5) says how many binary bits to use for the GS Company Prefix and Extension+Serial. Decimal: EPC Header = Filter = Partition = 5 GS Company Prefix = Extension + Serial Reference = 258 EPC Header (8 bits) = Filter ( bits) = Partition ( bits) = GS Company Prefix (2 bits) = Extension + Serial Reference ( bits) = Padding (2 bits) = Step : Translate the components from decimal to binary.
