GS1 identification key for one asset that a company owns or uses, such as a machine, a computer or an aircraft part. It is a GS1 Company Prefix followed by an individual asset reference, up to 30 characters of GS1 character set 82 in total; the first four characters are digits because the shortest GS1 Company Prefix has four. Application Identifier (8004) carries it, and (7023) carries the GIAI of an assembly; the element strings are the patterns gs1_ai_8004 and gs1_ai_7023.
