About Pinpoint Data's Services

 

Pinpoint Data now offers manufacturers an invaluable resource for promotions development: online Family Code Management!
The GS1 DataBar's upgraded validation process will allow verification of up to three Company Prefixes as well as up to three separate Family Codes per offer. This expansion triples the risks of poorly structured and maintained Family Codes.

How does it work?
The Family Code Manager™ guides users in properly establishing and utilizing Family Code structures. Participating manufacturers supply Family Code data in digital format, or enter it directly at www.pinpoint-data.com with the easy-to-use Family Code entry page. That's it! The Family Codes are instantly displayed in a system-generated hierarchy along with counts of all products that are currently registered to each code. Changes to the Family Codes are simple, too - just click to edit or delete an entry!
