● "AI code" is the abbreviation for "Application Identifier".
AI code is an identification code that manages the data items attached to the head of a product code,

● AI code is used with barcode standards established by GS1.
"GS1" is the abbreviation for "Global Standard One". It is an international organization that designs and proposes
international standards.
● Items set by 4 kinds of barcodes (Code128, DM, QR or micro QR) can use the AI code input support function.
● The following AI codes can be input by AI code input support function.
