a. NSD = Number System Digit. The NSD character is the character that
precedes the UPC bar code. The NSD for regular UPC-A bar codes is a
zero. Other commonly used Number System Digits used with UPC-A are:
“2” - used for random weight items such as meat and produce.
“3” - used for the drug and health items.
“4” - used for in-store non-food items.
“5” - used for coupons.
b. If UPC-E is expanded to UPC-A, the transmission of Check Digit (CD)
and NSD will be determined by the UPC-A settings on this page.
