Set up an SSCC number series on transfer routes
You can set up an SSCC number series on the transfer route level. Besides the specific SSCC number series, the transfer-to location can request a specific SSCC label layout. The transfer-to location can also indicate whether it only accepts homogeneous shipping containers or whether mixed shipping containers are permitted as well. This can be set up in the Transfer Route SSCC Setup.

On the General FastTab, fill in the following fields:
Field Description Enable SSCC Specifies whether the transfer route requires SSCC Nos. When the Enable SSCC toggle is turned on, the system will check whether SSCCs are assigned when posting the document. When the toggle is turned off, no SSCCs can be assigned for this transfer route. GTIN Required Specifies whether GTIN is required for this transfer route. When for an Inventory Pick line or Warehouse Shipment line for a Transfer Order, an SSCC number is created, the system can check if the lot number is assigned for that line. It depends on the Transfer Route SSCC Setup whether or not this check is triggered during the creation of the SSCC number. SSCC Label Layout Code Specifies the code of the SSCC Label Layout. Lot No. Required Specifies whether the lot number should already be assigned when creating an SSCC for a Lot-Tracked Item. Composition Specifies the composition of the SSCC logistical units that are allowed for this transfer route. When the Enable SSCC toggle is turned on, the system will check whether SSCCs are assigned when posting an Inventory Pick or Warehouse Shipment. When the toggle is turned off, no SSCCs can be assigned to the items for this transfer route.

On the SSCC FastTab, fill in the following fields:
Field Description Extension Digit Specifies the extension digit. The extension digit has no defined logic and is purely used to increase the capacity of the Serial Reference within the SSCC. It is assigned by the company that constructs the SSCC. The Extension Digit can range from 0 to 9. Serial Reference Nos. Specifies the serial reference number. The Serial Reference Nos specifies the number series that is used to (together with the extension digit and GS1 company prefix) create a globally unique SSCC. GS1 Company Prefix Specifies the GS1 company prefix. The GS1 Company Prefix is the globally unique number issued to your company by a GS1 Member Organization. GS1 Company Prefixes are assigned to companies in varying lengths. You can generate a preview of the SSCC number with the transfer route setup to verify the correct setup of the SSCC fields.
