4. Data checks

The entry instructions in the Attribute explorer and the ‘International Measuring Rules’ are leading in achieving correct general and logistic data which are part of checks performed by a Data Management Service. The information present on a product’s packaging is leading in label information checks.

The DMS checks, you make corrections

After you have sent a product or packaging PDF to a Data Management Service, they will compare the information about an on the product with the data contained in GS1 Data Source at the moment of the call for checks. That is why it is important you do not make changes after receiving the call for checks. Do you need to make a change? In that case please request a re-check using ‘MijnGS1’.

The DMS will provide you with the checks’ results. In case errors were detected, you will receive a listing of these and suggestions what to correct. Once the DMS has checked your corrections and found them to be in order, your data has been approved!
