GLN (Global Location Number) - CSV
The Global Location Number (GLN) is a GS1 identification code that uniquely identifies organizations and locations in domestic and international business transactions. It consists of 13 digits: a GS1 Company Prefix, a Location Reference, and a Check Digit. GLN can identify legal entities (corporations, organizations, sole proprietors), functions (accounting, HR departments), physical locations (offices, factories, warehouses, stores), and digital locations (system access points). GS1 Japan has been promoting its use since May 1999, and it is widely utilized in EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), product information management, and logistics standardization.
