Title
The user interface has been completely redesigned to be more intuitive and easy-to-navigate.

The app has two powerful features—survey and check.

Using the survey feature, you can assess your organisation’s use of GS1 barcodes for scanning—what percentage of suppliers’ products have GS1 barcodes, those with non-GS1 standard barcodes and those without barcodes.

With the check feature, you can determine if your products’ barcodes are correctly encoded so that, when scanned, you get product identification data, including the Global Trade Item Number and more.

This understanding was really crucial for us in order to push for the highest level of compliance. Bad barcodes mean bad problems for the supply chain.”
