Identifies the number of individual components in a grouping of merchandise that is sold together as a single trade item. It is used to describe the whole-parts relationship, which can be of different types. |

| Usage example: |
For a Bed-in-a-Bag, the total number would be 7: 2 pillows, 1 flat sheet, 1 fitted sheet, 1 comforter, 2 shams |

| Usage rule: |
1. This is not the specification of the number of shipping units for an item. The number of pieces in the set may be different than the number of shipping components; see numberOfPack-agesForSetPiecesGTIN.
2. The set is sold as one GTIN and its components may or may not have a GTIN. |
