GLN – Global Location Number

The GLN (Global Localisation Number) is an international unique identification number for organisations. Based on a main number, the organisation can define its own GLNs for its sites. For example, a company can assign GLNs to its stores.

For more information please go to GS1 Germany.

The GLNs of the beeline Group

Beeline Group offers three brands and each brand has its own GLN:

  • 4016632000000 for „SIX“– this is also our common EDIFACT sender GLN
  • 4043977000006 for „White Label“ and „ACC“
  • 4044297000004 for „IAM“ and „TOSH“

Identification of your company

For example, to exchange data in Edifact format, beeline needs to know your GLN to identify your company as the sender. Even if you wwant to use a data pool, your company needs a GLN.

Identification of your shops

For the assignment of sales and inventory data, beeline also needs the unique GLNs of your POS (Point Of Sale).

 

You do not use GLNs? Create a pseudo GLN

If your company does not use regular GLNs, you can create pseudo GLNs for POS based on your internal store number. Please find a description for creation of a pseudo GLN in the following document:
