A supplemental identification which provides more information complementary to the main trade item number provided in the LIN segment, e.g., a batch number, promotional variant number, etc,.

An alternative identification which may be used instead of the main trade item number provided in the LIN segment, e.g., a buyer's article number, an HIBC code, etc,.

3 = Substituted By - To provide the trade item number of a product which has substituted the product identified by the trade item number in the LIN segment.

In the despatch advice this function code may be used to inform trading partners of the trade item number of the product originally ordered which has been substituted by another product identified in the LIN segment.

4 = Substituted For - To provide the trade item number of a product which has been substituted by the product identified by the trade item number provided in the LIN segment.

In this case, the segment LIN will refer to the despatched product and the PIA segment will provide the trade item number of the unavailable product.

Segment Notes:

This segment is used to identify additional product codes for the current line item.

Examples:
PIA+1+ABF5682:BP'
In this example the PIA segment is used to provide an additional identification to the trade item number provided in the LIN segment. The GTIN 5412345123453 provided in the LIN segment refers to the internal buyer's part number ABF5682.

PIA+3+5412345123095:SRV'
In this example the PIA segment is used to provide the trade item number of the product by which the product identified in the LIN segment by the GTIN 5412345123095 has been substituted.

PIA+4+5412345123095:SRV'
In this example the PIA segment is used to provide the GTIN of the product which has been substituted by the former primary GTIN . The new GS1 article 5412345111184 would be included in the message in the LIN segment.

PIA+5+2209953C001L:AC'
This example details the HIBC code 2209953C001L which is provided as the primary product code because no GTIN was provided in the LIN segment.
