GS1net User Guide 'Cookbook'
The GS1net User Guide, referred to as the GS1net "Cookbook", is for all suppliers loading and maintaining data in GS1net, including the NPC (National Product Catalogue) for healthcare.
The "Cookbook" has been developed to provide improved user documentation, specifically to assist users to better understand the system and the tasks/data needed to meet your industry's requirements. You may download the whole "Cookbook", or just access the relevant sections as and when needed. This is a new format for GS1net user documentation which we hope you find useful.

Browser Template Tool & User Guides

The GS1net Browser Template (BT) is
an entry level manual data loading tool that suppliers may elect to use
to load and maintain their GS1net catalogue. This is designed for smaller catalogues of less than 100 GTIN's, otherwise, it should only be a short-term solution.
