The Serial Shipping Container Code is a unique identification of individual shipping containers. It uses the standard GS1-128 barcode symbology, using the GS1 Application Identifier Standard.
The SSCC uses an 18 digit number which consists of:
a) a single extension digit assigned by the company that constructs the SSCC
b) the GS1/UCC/EAN company prefix. Those assigned by UCC are prefixed with 0.
c) a serial reference number that must remain unique for at least 12 months
d) a single Mod 10 check digit.

When an SSCC barcode is generated using dLSoft components the data is prefixed by the (00) Application Identifier. The Mod 10 check digit may be generated by selecting the Auto-check digit option. The “Show check digit” option is ignored, as the Mod 10 check digit must always be shown in the human readable form.
