Documentation

Definition

Indicator causing the check digit for the International Article Number (EAN) to be determined automatically.

The check digit is only determined automatically if

  • this indicator is set
  • you have entered an EAN that does not solely comprise zeros, that is numeric, and that has no more than 17 figures
  • you have entered an EAN category
  • the check algorithm for the EAN category specified is the normal check digit algorithm in Customizing

Procedure

Examples

Dependencies

If the indicator is set, the length of the EAN entered must be one digit shorter than the required length for the system to determine the check digit correctly (since the last digit of the EAN is always the check digit).
