3 This document should be read in conjunction with the BMS version Beta 2 Trade Item Information including correction documents. This is a Beta 2.0 version of the guideline for Trade Item Information version as implemented by GS1 Sweden. This guideline is for users and solution providers.. It is important to know the difference between this two documents and how you should read the documents to avoid misunderstandings. You cannot compare the two documents in their entirety since they are based on different groupings of attributes. In the BMS the structure is strictly built upon the new data model for GS1 Trade Item Information and the guideline is based upon a more logical grouping of attributes.

11 Introduction In order to have an efficient flow of goods it is vital that the seller and the buyer have the same and correct information about the attributes of items, such as dimensions, weight, article number and shelf life. This data is sent electronically which provides an efficient flow of information. By getting item information in advance, the recipient can prepare warehouse and shelf space and update computer systems so that logistics are optimized and handling of the physical item is easier and quicker. It is essential that the information sent is correct and exactly reflects the item itself. Since the recipient prepares his systems and logistic routines in advance, considerable cost can be incurred if the item is not as described in the information sent. Remember that it is the supplier's responsibility to ensure that item information is correct. This guideline is a description of the Swedish adaption of the GS1 Trade Item and the Food and Beverage Information. The guideline is intended for suppliers sending Trade Item Information to their recipients. The content will provide the knowledge and insight you need in order to supply correct Trade Item Information. Parts of the content in the document are also intended for system developers and recipients of Trade Item Information. In addition, system developers and recipients must also read the business technical document specification for the Trade Item Information included Food and Beverage Information. Figure 1 Trade Item Information consists of a number of logical groups in a hierarchical educational structure. Figure 2 Food and Beverage Information consists of a number of logical groups in a hierarchical educational structure. Version 2.0, Beta, GS1 Sweden Page 11 (108)

12 Figure 10 Animal feeding information consists of a number of logical groups in a hierarchical educational structure. The logical grouping of Trade item information, Food and beverage information and Animal feeding information in this guideline differs from ADS itemization grouping based on an adaptation of the global data model where the terms are grouped into modules. For system developers need guidance read in conjunction with the ADS. Trade Item Information - attributes The attributes in Trade Item Information are described in this section. The attributes are grouped in logical groups in a hierarchical structure. The attributes are described by an attribute number, for example T0153, an attribute name, for example Document command, a definition and sometimes additional descriptions. An example is specified for some attributes. These examples must be read independently and not in combination with other examples. Figure 3 Trade Item Information consists of a number of logical groups and undergroupings in a hierarchical educational structure. Version 2.0, Beta, GS1 Sweden Page 12 (108)

13 Note that the logical grouping in this guideline differs from ADS itemization grouping based on an adaptation of the global data model where the terms are grouped into modules. For system developers need guidance read in conjunction with the ADS. Trade Item Document The group is used for specifying Trade Item Information for a complete trade item hierarchy. T0153 Document command Code indicating if the information is an addition, deletion or a change. Code indicating if the information is for a new item, deleted item, changed item or corrected Trade Item Information. Note that the document command applies to the whole trade item hierarchy. New: Used when one or more items in the trade item hierarchy are new and are being declared for the first time. Also used when the pallet level item is new and the case and base level items are unchanged. Deletion: May be used when the information provider of trade item removes Trade Item Information from his system in order to allow the buyer to make a corresponding deletion. Only to be used when the item is known to the buyer. Only to be used when the buyer has previously received information from the supplier that the trade item is to be discontinued (given in "T4015 Discontinued date time"). Change: Used when one or more items in the hierarchy is changed, but no item has been corrected. The change does not require that the item is allocated a new GTIN, according to GTIN Allocation Rules. For example, when the storage temperature of the item changes. Correction: Used when the Trade Item Information of one or more items have been corrected. Correction means that previously submitted information was incorrect and is corrected, without any change in the item itself, for example correction of a spelling mistake in the item name. The code is always in relation to previously sent information on this item that is approved by Validoo Item. For example, if an attempt to register a new item is rejected by Validoo Item, the Trade Item Information should be corrected and resubmitted. In this case, the item is still a new item. Code list T0153 Choose a value from code list T0153. ADD = New DELETE = Deletion CHANGE_BY_REFRESH = Change CORRECT = Correction is specified according to code list T0153 See T0151 Creation date time Date and point of time when the business document was created.
