SCC Barcodes for Master Cartons, Pallets, and Skids(Commonly called SCC-14, GTIN-14, ITF-14, Shipping Container Code, or Master Carton Code.) |
What is it? |
|
A Shipping Container Code, a 14-digit barcode placed on
the outside of your shipping carton or pallet, allows
your retailer to scan your shipment of multiple units of
your product as it comes into their warehouse. Used in most retail situations, a Shipping Container Code may also be referred to as a Master Carton Code, SCC, SCC-14, GTIN-14, ITF-14, or DUN-14. All these terms describe the same 14-digit barcode which is created in the Interleaved 2 of 5 (ITF) symbology. |

How do Barcodes for Master Cartons (SCC-14) work? |
|
Master Carton Codes (also known as SCC-14 or GTIN-14)
appear as lines (bars) of varying widths representing the
series of numbers commonly shown below the bars. Barcode scanners read the bars and convert them back to the 14-digit Master Carton Code or Pallet Code that they represent. When you reach an agreement with a retailer to carry your product(s), they request the information required by their unique proprietary sales and inventory tracking systems. Your 14-digit SCC-14 / GTIN-14 code, when scanned identifies the container of goods with your company; the cases or pallets of goods. |
|
What if I have multiple items with different UPC codes within one box? |
|
Let’s assume that you pack 10 units of item A and 10 units of item B into a master carton. This is referred to as a Mixed Master Carton. Often this comes in the form of a mixed carton or mixed palette. Mixed Master Cartons are a special case. They require a specific starting digit (called a package level indicator) and require their own unique base UPC code. You MAY NOT use the UPC from an actual item inside of the box as the base for the master carton code for a mixed master carton. If you are unclear about this requirement, please call us at +1 404-869-0701 for further explanation. | |
