Quality controlled embargo (GS1 Temporary Code)

The special services data element can be used by a manufacturer to inform an internal warehouse or third party stockholder of the quality control status of the despatched goods, or goods ready to be despatched. The following codes apply:

0 = Released - informs the stockholder it is free to distribute the quality controlled passed goods already despatched or ready to be despatched.

1 = Quality Control Held - instructs the stockholder to withhold distribution of the goods already despatched or ready to be despatched until the manufacturer has completed a quality control assessment. Usually the stockholder will receive the whole consignment and the manufacturer will run quality control tests on production batches contained in the consignment. Once the manufacturer completes a positive quality control assessment, it communicates by other means a quality assurance certificate which releases the goods for further distribution by the stockholder.

2 = Quality Controlled Embargo - instructs the stockholder to withhold distribution of the goods already despatched or ready to be despatched, when some of the goods of the same production batch as goods contained in the consignment have failed quality control tests.
