UPC (Universal Product Code) Inquiry
By MIS Department
Page 2What are UPCs?
• UPCs are unique 11-digit numbers that are assigned to each size of a style, as well as to each prepack of a style, by season– The first digit of a UPC is the industry, for example 7 is used for
garment, while 8 is used for outerwear– Each manufacturer has its own ID number, which represents the
2nd through 6th positions of every UPC– Positions 7 through 12 are the unique number itself, which is
assigned to new sizes/prepacks as the next number after the last UPC used
– The last number in a UPC is the check digit, which is calculated with a formula based on the other numbers of the UPC. This is used to confirm that the UPC is entered correctly into the system
• UPC inquiry can be done for any style from the Sales menu, as well as from the Style Inquiry for a specific style
• NOTE: Some of the following slides will have different screen colors (browns and blues), but the screens you will see will all have the blue colors.
