GS1 DataMatrix AI String Parser & Serialization Validator
Novaqis GS1 DataMatrix Parser is an interactive engineering utility designed for pharmaceutical QA, packaging engineers, and regulatory leads. It decodes GS1 Application Identifiers (AIs) including GTIN-14, Expiration Date, Batch Number, and Serial Number directly in the browser, verifying Modulo-10 checksums and cross-border serialization compliance for SFDA Tatmeen, US DSCSA, and EU FMD.
GS1 DataMatrix AI Input String
Paste human-readable AI string format (e.g. (01)...(17)...) or barcode scanner output.

4 AIs Decoded| AI | Field Definition | Raw Value | Decoded Output | Status | Validation Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (01) | Global Trade Item Number (GTIN-14) | 06285000012348 | 06285000012348 | FAIL | Checksum mismatch! Expected check digit 3, but found 8. |
| (17) | Expiration Date (YYMMDD) | 281231 | 2028-12-31 (YYMMDD: 281231) | PASS | Parsed according to GS1 YYMMDD packaging rules (day 00 = end of month). |
| (10) | Batch / Lot Number | LOT-SA-9921 | LOT-SA-9921 | PASS | Length: 11/20 chars. Valid alphanumeric batch reference. |
| (21) | Serial Number (Unique Unit ID) | SN8839218204 | SN8839218204 | PASS | Length: 12/20 chars. Valid unit-level serialization identifier. |

AI (01) GTIN-14 Modulo-10
The 14th digit is mathematically derived from the preceding 13 digits using alternating weights 3 and 1 from left to right. Novaqis AMS verifies this algorithm prior to prepress engraving plate release.
AI (17) YYMMDD Date Rules
Per GS1 rules, if the exact expiry day is unstated by QA, DD is encoded as "00", which regulatory systems interpret as the final calendar day of that specific month.
ISO/IEC 15415 Print Quality
Physical DataMatrix symbols on secondary packaging must achieve minimum Grade C (1.5) or B (2.0) for Symbol Contrast, Modulation, Axial Nonuniformity, and Unused Error Correction.
Automate GS1 DataMatrix Inspection on Every Packaging Run
Eliminate manual barcode verification. Novaqis AMS automatically extracts, decodes, and grades ISO 15415/15416 2D DataMatrix and 1D Pharmacodes directly from high-resolution PDF and Illustrator packaging dielines prior to print cylinder engraving.
