The Traceability Process

The GS1 traceability process is composed of five sub-processes and eighteen steps. This section will explain in more detail these sub-processes and steps.

Note: In the explanation, the word "MUST," ?REQUIRED? and ?SHALL? mean that the definition is an absolute requirement. The words "MAY" or the adjective ?OPTIONAL? means that the action is optional.

The process of performing traceability can be visualized as shown in figure 3 below
