Segment Notes:
This segment is used to specify the actual physical dimensions of the product being ordered where that product is sold in variable lengths or volumes.
This segment must be used in conjunction with the LIN segment for the precise identification of the ordered product.

Example:
MEA+PD+LN:4+MTR:4.5'
The precise length of the product identified by the GTIN 5412345111115 is 4.5 metres.
