How does Traceability work? • The GS1 Global Traceability Standards provides guidance on how to implement effective traceability solutions • Unique identification • Global product identification number • Lot/batch number or serial number (unique number at the unit level) • Data capture • Bar coding or radio frequency identification (RFID) • Links management • Managing identification from the point-of-manufacture to the point-of-sale/point-of-care • Data communication • Associate the physical flow of products with the information flow • Different information sharing models
