Re: SSCC code

Cor...

If you are trying to generate your own SSCC number, the 9 digit ITH pallet 
number might still work for you...
The format for the SSCC number is:
00pnuuuuuusssssssssc
where:
00 - Indicates that what follows is an SSCC of exactly 18 characters
p - packaging type
nuuuuuu - UCC/EAN Company number with prefix
sssssssss - Serial number
c - check digit

so you could easily substitute the 9 digit ITH as the serial number 
portion of the bar code, and default in the remaining characters... You'll 
still need software to print the label, but the source for the info can 
easily be within BPCS.  (There is 1 caveat... the serial number must 
remain unique for at least 1 year, so if you are rolling the numbers over 
faster than that, this scheme won't work for you.)

Re: [BPCS-L] SSCC code






Thanks very much Barbara, I thought we needed some additional software
to do this, but I was thinking of usiong the palletnumber in the ITH
file, but this only contains 9 digits. Guess we will have to start
looking at some additional software.

Thanks and best regards,
Cor

Cor,
The SSCC is usually associated with pallet/carton labeling and is
typically 
handled by a package outside of the core BPCS programs.  I have seen 
customers using a warehouse management package such as EXE or WMS or
even TL  Ashford 
that handles the labeling requirements.  If you need to send this 
information 
sent out on an ASN, then the external package database can be used  to

source/populate the ASN files in ECM - these files include the
capability of 
sending palletized information to the end customer  (TAPB is the pallet
 level and 
TACB is the carton level).  Adaptor ECM606 is used to generate  the EDI
ASN.

Good  morning,

We are on ERP Lx (8.3) and we would like to use an SSCC  (Serial
Shipping Container Code) code. I could not find this within  the
application. 
Any ideas ?
