Data check

To derive the benefits of Global Data Synchronisation (GDS) it is paramount that the product data is accurate and current.

GDS relies on the supplier’s version of the product data to drive the supply chain systems. Publishing inaccurate data prevents you and your trading partner from gaining value from GDS.

Therefore it is essential that you check the accuracy of your data, ensuring:

• You know when to change the product code by following the GTIN allocation rules when creating a new item or a variant to an existing item
• The product dimension data is accurate and consistent with the global packaging and measuring guidelines
• You review the Global Product Classification schema to ensure you have classified your products correctly
• You review the GDS validation rules which will help you with logic checks on the data you have coded
