What is the SSCC on the label?

Serial Shipping Container Code — a unique identifier for each logistics unit (pallet/parcel). It enables scan-based receipt and links the physical label to the content declared in the ASN.

Do I need a WMS to print GS1 labels?

Not necessarily. The Azuvio Web EDI portal generates compliant GS1-128 labels with SSCC straight from the ASN, so even small suppliers can meet retailer requirements.

What portal labelling is

GS1 labelling from the portal lets a supplier without a WMS generate and print compliant logistics labels (GS1-128 with SSCC) straight from the Web EDI portal, based on the created shipping notice.

Why it's needed

Retailers require standard logistics labels on every pallet/parcel, with a unique SSCC, to scan receipt quickly. A small supplier with no system can't produce them — risking delivery rejection or chargeback.

How Azuvio helps

The Azuvio portal automatically generates GS1-128 labels with SSCC on ASN creation, links them to the ASN and hands them to the supplier ready to print — full logistics compliance with no own WMS.
