1 General Information

1.1 Problem Statement / Business Need

The Voluntary Interindustry Commerce Standards Organization (VICS) Data SynchronizationSubcommittee has reviewed the existing Trade Item Data Model and compared thoseattributes to current business process requirements in this industry. Industry uniquematerials and processes exist which requires additional attributes to completely and properlyconvey the data supporting current business processes in this industry. This document bothdefines and describes those additional attributes that have been identified as necessary tosupport current Hardlines industry business requirements. This includes new attributes andnew Data Validation Rules.

1.2 Objective

The North American Hardlines industry has begun the process of data synchronization andthese implementations necessitate the changes and additions to the EAN.UCC standards asdocumented to support these efforts. The objective is to create a business messagestandard supporting communication of trade item data attributes for the Hardlines industry.

1.3 Audience

The audience of the standards would be any participant in the global supply chainspecifically the Hardlines Industry.

Enumeration

3.0 Security Tag Location Code Type

List

A code list that describes the location of any electronic article security

(EAS) tag on a trade item.

Enumeration

Class

3.1 Concealed Inside Trade Item An electronic article security (EAS) tag has been concealed inside a

trade item.

Enumeration

3.2 Integrated Inside of Trade Item An electronic article security (EAS) tag has been integrated inside a

trade item.

Enumeration

3.3 On Outside of Trade Item An electronic article security (EAS) tag has been placed on the outside

of a trade item.

4.0 Security Tag Type List A code list that describes the technology associated with an Electronic

Article Surveillance (EAS) tag placed on a trade item.

Enumeration

Class

4.1 Acousto-Magnetic EAS Tag Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) tag that operates utilizing radio

frequency signals in pulses, which energize the tag. When the pulse

ends, the tag responds, emitting a single frequency signal like a tuning

fork. While the transmitter is off between pulses, a receiver detects the

tag signal. A microcomputer checks the tag signal detected by the

receiver to ensure it is at the right frequency, is time-synchronized to

the transmitter, at the proper level and at the correct repetition rate. If

all these criteria are met, the alarm occurs.

Enumeration

4.2 Electro-Magnetic EAS Tag Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) tag that operates utilizing low

frequency magnetic fields generated by a transmitter antenna. Whenthe tag passes through the magnetic field, it transmits a unique

frequency pattern. This pattern is picked up by an adjacent receiver

antenna, and the signal is processed and will trigger an alarm when the

specific pattern is recognized

Enumeration

4.3 Ink or Dye EAS Tag Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) tag that is designed to break and

release fluid, usually indelible inks onto the trade item if the tag is

removed by other than the retailer.

Enumeration

4.4 Microwave EAS Tag Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) tag attached to a product that

receives and combines two microwave frequency signals emitted by a

transmitter antenna. The tag transmits the combined signal which is

amplified and compared to a reference in the detector to ensure it is at

the correct frequency and level. If correct, an alarm is initiated.

Enumeration

4.5 Radio Frequency EAS Tag Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) tag attached to a product that

responds to a specific frequency emitted by a transmitter antenna. An

adjacent receiver antenna then picks up the response from the tag.

The tag response signal is processed and will trigger an alarm when it

matches specific criteria.
