RSS Background Information
|
|
RSS was developed by the Uniform
Code Council, Inc. to answer business needs of
its 200,000 member companies in North America. The
purpose of the code is to increase the amount of
information that can be put into a bar code while
decreasing the overall area of the code. The code
will allow businesses to improve the stream of information
and to match that information to the actual flow
of product.
|
This type of code is particularly useful for applications
where space limitations are a concern. Industries such as
pharmaceutical, healthcare, logistics and transportation,
and supermarkets have recently begun utilizing this new symbology.
RSS allows businesses to go beyond the typical manufacturer
and product identification information embedded in a bar
code. The healthcare industry views this symbology as a potential
way to significantly reduce medication errors. The RSS technology
also improves the labeling and tracking of food items. It
gives supermarkets the opportunity to improve their labeling
and tracking of meat and produce items. The code can be encoded
to include manufacturers name, item identification number,
weight, extended price, and the ability to place best if
used by dates on items. Consumers also benefit by added consumer
safety. If a bad batch of produce is placed on the shelves,
a supermarket will have the ability to track down the produce
immediately and remove it from the shelves.
Tradeshows:
TALtech will be demonstrating this new RSS-14 software at
Frontline Solutions Expo (Supply Chain Week), September 15-18
at McCormick Place in Chicago. Booth number 336. Visit www.frontlineexpo.com for
