Trust and Savings Reports now updated to include GS1 data

Tuesday 16 January 2018

To support the Department of Health’s Scan4Safety initiative, and as part of the next phase of our compliance journey to enable our customers and suppliers to be able to trade using global coding standards (GS1), we have made some modifications to our customer reports.

Both our Trust and Savings reports now include data fields to display Global Location Number (GLN) and Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) data.

Please note when running your Trust or Savings reports:

• GTIN codes will only be visible where suppliers have provided us with their GTIN data.
• GLN codes will only be visible against your requisition points where these have been provided by your trust.
