- Copy the code exactly as printed, including leading zeroes and letter case where visible.
- For 82x, double-check lookalike pairs such as 0/O and 1/I before decoding.
- If output conflicts with packaging claims, prioritize official label instructions and support guidance.
- A monthly inventory pass with decoded dates can reduce duplicates and improve stock turnover.
