  1. Generic UPC (Universal Product Code) [Also known as PEIB UPC]UPCs beginning with prefix ‘033383’ How to format a Generic UPC

  2. Format of GS1 standards • All GS1 numbers (UPC, GTIN, SSCC, GLN) essentially have 3 parts: • Company Prefix = a number assigned and managed by GS1 that uniquely identifies a company from any other company across the globe. • Reference Number = assigned by the owner of the Company Prefix to identify what is being numbered (e.g. a pallet, a case, an item, a location, etc.) • Check Digit = an algorithm that serves as a “checks and balances” to ensure preceding digits were entered correctly. NOTE: All three parts must not be separated in order to maintain uniqueness

  3. GS1 Data Structures GTIN 14 digits SSCC 18 digits GLN 13 digits UPC 12 digits X X X X X X X X X X X X X X Item Item/Case Pallet Location NOTE: The Company Prefix can vary from 6 digits to 9 digits. As such, the reference # will also vary depending on the size of the Company Prefix.

As such, this number is NOT recommended for companies looking to distinguish the product between companies who use this same prefix.
