Examples of enterprise identifiers are: Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code (see 3.8); Department of Defense Activity Address Code (DODAAC) (see 3.19); Dun & Bradstreet's Data Universal Numbering System (D-U-N-S) (see 3.15); North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) CAGE (NCAGE) code (see
3.40); and GS1 Company Prefix (see 3.25). An enterprise identifier code is uniquely assigned to an activity by an issuing agency registered in accordance with procedures outlined in ISO/IEC
15459-2. An enterprise may be an entity such as a design activity, manufacturer, supplier, depot, program management office or a third party.
3.23 Free text. Human readable information other than what is encoded in, the machine- readable medium. (see ISO/IEC 19762-1) For the purposes of this standard, Free Text includes applied data and information not associated with machine-readable information if present.
NOTE: This information may be needed by one or more users of the label. An example of free text is a product description. (see Figure 18)
3.24 Group. A collection of units, assemblies, or subassemblies that is a subdivision of a set which is not capable of performing a complete operational function. (Example: antenna group, indicator group)

3.26 Human-readable information (HRI). Information intended to be conveyed to a person. HRI in lieu of machine-readable information is commonly referred to as text. HRI applications in association with a linear bar code or two-dimensional (2D) symbol (see Figure
18) are identified as:
a. Human-readable interpretation. (see 3.27)
b. Human translation. (see 3.28)
c. Data area titles. (see 3.11)
d. Free Text. (see 3.23)

19762-1) (see Figure 18)
3.28 Human translation. Human-readable information provided within proximity of the machine readable medium, representing portions of the information encoded and data field descriptions not encoded in the symbols. (see ISO/IEC 19762-1) (see Figure 18)
3.29 Issuing agency code (IAC). The IAC represents the registration authority that issued the enterprise identifier (e.g., Dun and Bradstreet, GS1). (see ISO/IEC 15459-2)
