Segment Notes:
This segment is used to identify the line item for which instructions for despatch are being provided.
If Global Trade Item Numbers are available it is mandatory to use GTIN within the LIN segment.

Note: If the instruction to despatch is being provided for a full package (e.g. pallet) containing one or more products which have been allocated a serial shipping container code then only the line item number (data element 1082) should be provided in the LIN segment. The serial shipping container code to identify the full package should be specified in the GIN segment (number 21).

Note: Should it be required to provide the SSCC marked on the packaging of the article identified in the LIN segment then the GIN segment in group 13 should be used.

Note on DE 1082:
Numbering rule: In Part I, section 4.10 there is the recommendation “Within EANCOM® it is recommended that the line numbers used in the first occurrence of data element 1082 in the LIN segment be sequential, starting at 1 for each new message.”

Note on DE 7140:
Only the following significant digits are possible:
- 8 digits for GTIN 8 codes
- 12 digits for GTIN 12 codes
- 13 digits for GTIN 13 codes
- 14 digits for GTIN 14 codes

Dependency Note:
C829 is only used when sub-lines are required.
FOR A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION ON THE USAGE OF SUB-LINES PLEASE REFER TO PART I, SECTION 4.10.
