SSCC Number series in your administration

When you create a new SSCC number series, it is important to decide what numbers to use on forehand. An SSCC number consists of 17 digits. The first 10 digits are set; you probably receive these from your customer. However, the number series you see in your system consists of 18 digits. The 18^th digit, the so-called ‘check digit’, is automatically given by the system.
