The Global Data Synchronisation Network™ is an [[internet]]-based, interconnected network of interoperable data pools and a global registry (the GS1 Global Registry™) that enable companies around the globe to exchange standardised and synchronised [[supply chain]] data with their trading partners.
GDSN assures that data exchanged between trading partners is accurate and compliant with universally supported standards.
Line 8:
The GDSN is managed by GS1 [http://www.gs1.org].
==Global Identification Numbers==
The [[Global Location Number]] (GLN) and the [[Global Trade Item Number]] (GTIN) are the global identification numbers in the GDSN. The GLN is the identifier for legal entities, trading partners and locations while the GTIN is the identifiers for trade items.<ref>[http://www.epcglobalinc.org/about/media_centre/EPCglobal_and_GDSN_v4_0_Final.pdf EPCglobal: The EPCgloabal Network and the The Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN)]</ref>
