© 2012 GS1 Driving Momentum Together GS1 Logger Staff – statistics & results ~1 month test period ~ 60 testers from 12 MO-s ~ 10,000. records 7,306 scans (without duplications and server errors) 6316 valid 454 faulted 536 invalid

© 2012 GS1 Driving Momentum Together GEPIR for Staff… The Logger for Staff is connected to the Hungarian GEPIR router During the pilot we detected some discrepancies in the GEPIR network 37 routers were affected by Logger scans 20 of them did not worked properly Issues experienced: –Daily request limit exceeded (although GS1 HU router is v3.1) (10 routers!) –Empty gepirParty response with RC 0 (no error) –Response: Unknown country prefix (RC 5) –Response: Server error (RC 99) GS1 MOs can provide solutions based on GEPIR (e.g. for premium users) only if the GEPIR network is reliable

© 2012 GS1 Driving Momentum Together Key learnings: 1.The Good: 12 MO is joining the project, more than 10,000 GTIN scanned, more than 500 invalid ID-Keys found 2.the Bad: no common agreed process how to manage the invalid GTIN-s 3.and the Ugly: the GEPIR network is often unable to handle the queries
