Managed GLN subscription (GPOs and Wholesale Distributors)

For this subscription, healthcare organizations are assigned GLNs from GPOs and wholesale distributors. If you are a GPO or wholesale distributor, view the Location User Guide for Managed GLN Subscribers to get started.

Create a Unique Device Identifier (Medical Devices)

GS1 US Data Hub | Product enables you to create the two segments of the UDI:
- Device Identifiers (DI) using Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs) for your Primary Device and Higher Levels of Packaging;
- Production Identifiers (PI), which are represented by GS1 Application Identifiers (AIs).

To learn how to create the UDI, view the UDI article in this Help Center.
