1. General
1.1. Purpose of product numbering
Product numbers based on a standard set of criteria are
an essential prerequisite for DP-assisted handling of
business. They serve to provide a clear means of
communication between customers, regional
organizations, head office and production workshops
with respect to:
Preparation of quotations, selection and project
planning
Processing of orders
Ordering
Order acknowledgment
Handling of products on stock
Order processing in the dispatch points
Delivery and dispatch
Internal and external accounting
Reporting and planning
Exchange of product master data
Service and warranty.
1.2. Range of application
Product numbers are determined for the products
of the manufacturing locations/dispatch points
of the regional office manufacturing and service
centers
of associated companies
and, if applicable, products from other vendors
(including manufacture under license).
marketed by Siemens AG in Germany and abroad.

The products are:
Hardware products (equipment, systems, plants,
devices etc.)
Software products (operating systems, programming
systems, process systems, control systems etc.)
Standardized services (e.g. courses, examinations,
building acceptance tests, standard wiring,
installation services, standard project work, services)
Technical documentation (Instruction Manuals,
equipment manuals, training documentation etc.).


1.3. Definition of the numbering systems
The most important numbering systems approved within
Siemens AG are as follows:
Machine-readable product designation (MLFB)
according to SN 01030
Siemens item number (SSN) according to SN 01001
Technical numbering system according to SN 01060
according SN1000
https://ccs.siemens.com/CCS/CCS_en/siemens_stan
dards_en.html

The MLFB numbering system is to be used in the
sektors of Industry and Energy.

Each product must only be identified within Siemens AG
by one product number. If products and modules of one
Group are also marketed by other Groups, the product
number of the originally responsible Group is retained.
Group-internal numbering systems, e.g. factory drawing
numbers, are not allowed in cross-group
ordering/accounting (if necessary, numbering for spare
parts in accordance with SN 01050).

1.5. Central Working Group (ZAG) MLFB
The "central working group for machine-readable
product codes", or ZAG MLFB, is made up of numbering
designees and representatives from the former divisions
A&D, I&S, PG and PTD and is responsible for arranging
the products into super, main, and sub-groups of the
MLFB.
Since February 2008, new sub-groups will also have the
4th digit of the MLFB authorized by the ZAG MLFB.




2. MLFB numbering system
The MLFB is the Order No. of a product and, at the
same time, the model/system designation. The
model/system designation starts with the first position of
the MLFB and at least comprises the data positions 1 to
3, but, at the most, the first block of the product number.
2.1. Numbering scheme
The machine-readable product designation (MLFB) at
least consists of block 1 (7 digits) but, at the most, of 3
blocks (16 digits).
Since June 2000 the first two blocks (12 digits) are
necessary for newly released MLFB sub-groups.








In DP processes, the order codes are managed in one or
more fields. A maximum of 32 order codes are possible.
For machine-based order processing, order codes must
be specified according to the following model see also
section 2.4.3:







The following meanings apply:
A The letter space (alpha space) without "O" (for
order codes ANA without "I" and "O")
N Digit (number space)
- Separator (hyphen)
+ Separator (plus)
Z 2-digit mandatory code to identify "special designs"


Assigning an MLFB to a sub-group therefore
encompasses the data spaces 1 to 4. Applications must
be sent in writing to the responsible contact center. All
MLFB keys must be approved by the responsible ZAG
MLFB member.

The centrally determined results are registered by the
ZAG MLFB and published in the MLFB manual for SN
01030.




Note: MLFBs with 6 to 11 digits may still occur for older
products.
In addition to the MLFB, certain products have
supplementary Order codes for further basic technical
data, identified by "9" or "Z" within the MLFB, and/or
special versions identified by "-Z" at the end of the
number. The "ANA" Order code scheme applies to other
basic technical data, and the "ANN" Order code scheme
to special versions (see 2.3).

2.3. MLFB with Order codes
In many cases, products available in multiple versions
cannot be fully identified using the 16 digits of the MLFB.
It is possible to handle these products automatically,
however, with the aid of "order codes", which are codes
for the special designs.





2.3.1. Order codes for
"Further basic technical data" (ANA)
"Technical Basic Specifications" refer to the technical
features and characteristics that are already encoded in
certain letters or digits of the productnumber.
If you want a design that goes beyond this, an ID must
be used for digits 7 through 16 according to the
specification in the catalog.




















2.3.2. Order codes for
"Special designs" (A N N)
"Special designs" refers to further technical features that
are not encoded in certain letters or digits of the product
number beyond the "technical basic specifications".
When ordering, the identifier "-Z" must be added to the
MLFB for "special designs". The order code is in the
"ANN" format.








There are 2 types of order codes:
Order codes for
"Further technical basic specifications" A N A
for the 16 digits and letters of the MLFB
and
order codes for
"special designs" A N N
additional technical specifications beyond the 16 digits
and letters of the MLFB


"9" for a digit or
"Z" for a letter

The order code is in the "ANA" format. The first letter
(alphabetic) specifies the corresponding data space in
the MLFB.

2.3. MLFB with Order codes
In many cases, products available in multiple versions
cannot be fully identified using the 16 digits of the MLFB.
It is possible to handle these products automatically,
however, with the aid of "order codes", which are codes
for the special designs.





2.3.1. Order codes for
"Further basic technical data" (ANA)
"Technical Basic Specifications" refer to the technical
features and characteristics that are already encoded in
certain letters or digits of the productnumber.
If you want a design that goes beyond this, an ID must
be used for digits 7 through 16 according to the
specification in the catalog.




















2.3.2. Order codes for
"Special designs" (A N N)
"Special designs" refers to further technical features that
are not encoded in certain letters or digits of the product
number beyond the "technical basic specifications".
When ordering, the identifier "-Z" must be added to the
MLFB for "special designs". The order code is in the
"ANN" format.








There are 2 types of order codes:
Order codes for
"Further technical basic specifications" A N A
for the 16 digits and letters of the MLFB
and
order codes for
"special designs" A N N
additional technical specifications beyond the 16 digits
and letters of the MLFB


"9" for a digit or
"Z" for a letter

The order code is in the "ANA" format. The first letter
(alphabetic) specifies the corresponding data space in
the MLFB.

inscription on a measuring point label of recorders.
However, the price for this version has been defined.
The requested version e.g. the exact inscription still
has to be specified in plain text.
















2.3.4. Combination of Order codes
Combinations of "Other basic technical data" and
various "Special versions" can be represented by
stringing together Order codes in any sequence, where a
"+" sign must be inserted between two Order codes,
without leaving spaces in between.












In order to be able to access the PMD or to enable DP
handling, Order codes must have the format
A N Y for "Further basic technical data" plus plain
text, and
Y N N for "Special versions", plus plain text.



















The separators " + " are data spaces. The number of
order codes is not limited by the MLFB system, but it can
be limited by DP processes, if applicable. It is
recommended to put a blank space between the
"-Z" and the first order code.

2.4. MLFB notation
It is permissible to interrupt block 1 using a gap (space)
to make it easier to recognize the number, e.g.
3TF46 22. The space is taking into consideration in
catalogs and price lists, but is left out when entering the
number into the data processing system on a computer.
If the number is written by hand in orders or
correspondence, the MLFB should not contain any
further spaces.

2.4.1. Catalog notation
If possible, the MLFB should be written completely in a
catalog. Products having a wide range of versions
should be composed in a classified manner as far as
possible, i.e. certain product features should be
assigned to the individual data positions (basic technical
data).
For clarity reasons and to save space, it is often useful
to break down these classifying product numbers in the
catalog into an MLFB group and one or more
supplements. A supplement may also comprise several
consecutive data positions. A supplement position is
shown by a dot or a little box.
Examples:









The complete product number, when applied, must be
formed in several stages by combining the MLFB group
with the supplements in accordance with the catalog
data. An MLFB whose supplement positions have not all
been specified is incomplete and cannot be ordered.

2.4.2. Documentation notation
In orders, delivery notes, invoices etc., MLFBs, Order
codes and any additional data in plain text are written in

3. Principles for etablishing the MLFB
3.1. General
Technical criteria are decisive when assigning the
product features and their characteristics to the data
positions of the MLFB scheme.
The function of a product is the prime consideration
when defining the MLFB. The technical characteristics
and their attributes in the catalog correspond to the
ranking of the criteria in the data positions of the MLFB
(4.1). If possible, the data particularly decisive for the
price should also be coded as far as possible at the front
of the MLFB.
Any aspects which may be subject to change (e.g.
organizational) must not be taking into account. The
manufacturing plant does not form part of the product
number. SN 37040 applies to the identification of the
manufacturing plant on products.
The product number must satisfy the requirements of
personal handling and electronic data processing. The
unambiguity and uniformity of the product numbers and
the reserve available for new products are monitored
centrally by the central working group ZAG MLFB.
For these reasons, no department may itself define
or change any product numbers. In the event of
faults, it must be expected that any MLFBs which
have not been agreed upon will be changed!

3.2. MLFB for products manufactured abroad
Products which are manufactured abroad by a regional
company, constructed under license or purchased from
another vendor are assigned a product number
according to the same rules as the original Siemens
products. The following points apply in addition.

3.2.1. Characters reserved until now
The characters reserved until now:
0 at data position 4
Y at data position 9 and
Order codes I..
are released for normal use since 01.06.2006

The appointed MLFBs with these chareacters until now
remains valid furthermore.

3.2.2. Identification of manufacturing plant
The manufacturing plant is not coded in the product
number in the case of products manufactured abroad
either, but is identified on the rating plate or product label
in accordance with SN 37040.


3.3. Product numbers in the case of changed
products
If a product is changed, the responsible parties referred
to in Section 1.4 will check whether a new product
number has to be defined or whether the previous
number can be retained. It should be remembered that a
change in the product number will, in many cases,
require extensive changes to documents in the head
office, regional organizations and at customers.
The product number should therefore be retained if the
product is fully replaceable with respect to functional and
operating characteristics, reliability, installation
conditions and interfaces (e.g. electrical connections).
If any design changes affect the spare parts service of
the product, the MLFB can still remain unchanged. If
necessary, production numbers according or serial
numbers will enable the function status or product status
to be recognized or derived.
For further details, please also refer to SN 10370
"Products and technical documents, exchangeability and
condition".

3.4. Reuse of product numbers that have become
free
The responsible parties according to Section 1.4 decide
on the reuse of a product number. Prerequisites are:
The manufacture of the previous product has been
discontinued everywhere (also construction under
license abroad)
Stocks have been used up
The normal period for stocking spare parts has
expired
10 years must have passed since the MLFB has
become free.

3.5. Numbers parallel to the MLFB
In addition to the MLFB, the international article numbers
(EAN; see also SN 01090-1) and the Universal Product
Code (UPC; see also SN 01090-2) are permitted as well
as the product-ID numbering systems which are
generally required by external customers.

4. Issuance and introduction of the
MLFBs
4.1. System for assigning the MLFB
The MLFB should be formed using a high degree of
classification in conformance with the ranking of selected
technical data, characteristics and attributes. The criteria
decisive for the price should be coded as far as possible
at the front of the MLFB.
A classified structure means that the individual data
positions are allocated certain product characteristics
and attributes (basic technical data) in the sequence of
their significance. When transposing the information to
the MLFB positions, the number of available characters
(numerical/alpha positions) must be taken into account
in the existing number of versions.
The significance of supplementary data positions within
the MLFB must not contradict the meaning of previous
data positions.
Clear presentation in the catalog, in particular with
respect to breakdown into the MLFB group and
supplements, must be possible. The supplements are
show in the sequence of data positions without any
overlapping.

4.2. Assignment of the MLFBs taking into
consideration SAP, FDB and catalogs
With the introduction of SAP, the so-called "Master
material data" (e.g. for marketable products, modules,
parts) can be recorded in SAP, i.e. adoption and
updating of these data are carried out in SAP.
Classifications are saved in SAP as configurable
material (KMAT). The product master data is divided into
core and supplemental sets.
To ensure the uniform flow of SAP material master data
and PMD and their depiction in catalogs, close
cooperation of the responsible centers is required as
early as the product development phase and right up to
the release to sales.

4.3. Assignment time of MLFB
The MLFB should be assigned in good time by the
responsible departments (see Section 1.4), or in
coordination with them, i.e. already during the
development phase (development agreement) of the
product.


4.4. MLFB for products of modular design
An MLFB must be defined as a product number for every
listed module. Racks or cabinets fitted with modules
(constructional units) and combined module packages
can be assigned their own MLFB in order to simplify
ordering and processing.

4.5. MLFB for accessories and spare parts
In many main groups, the letter "X" is assigned at data
position 3 for accessories, and the letter "Y" for spare
parts. Wherever the existing reserve and selection logic
permit, accessories and spare parts should be
numbered in these subgroups. Otherwise the number "9"
can be used for accessories and spare parts at the data
position directly following the type designation (usually at
the 5th position).

4.6. MLFB for Instruction Manuals and technical
documents
Instruction Manuals must be numbered taking into
account the numbering system (MLFB or SSN) to be
applied. In the exA&D Group, this applies in part to all
technical documents to be supplied, e.g. Instruction
Manuals, equipment manuals, programming instructions
etc. The Order No. is determined within the context of
the product numbering system.

4.7. MLFB for special versions
An unambiguous order designation is required for
electronic data processing of frequently ordered special
versions of listed products (e.g. customer versions). It is
then often useful to retain the product number of the
normal version, and to use an Order code in accordance
with Section 2.3 to identify the deviation.

4.8. Introduction of defined MLFB
When an MLFB is defined, the participating departments
agree on its date of introduction. The date depends on:
Availability of the products in PMD
(release for sale, release for delivery)
Production of catalog/price list
Production of Instruction Manuals

5. Application
5.1. Product number
When ordering, it is obligatory to specify the product
number (full identification, also with additional ordering
data according to Section 2 if applicable). The recipient
of the order is not obliged to additionally check the
product description for conformance with the product
number.

5.2. Product description
The product description should lead to the product
number (= Order No.) of the desired product. It consists
of one or more blocks with a maximum of 31 characters
each.
In the case of products which have several versions, for
which the MLFB has been defined as a main group and
supplementary blocks, the product description is broken
down into the "main group text" and texts for the
supplementary positions. A maximum of 20 lines can be
used for each block, but may be restricted by certain DP
procedures.
The product description shall be applicable for price lists,
quotations, orders, order acknowledgments, dispatch
documents, invoices, parts lists and technical
documentation.

5.3. Standardization of product numbers
The conventions regarding the notation/storage form of
the product number must be strictly observed for
electronic handling of orders and access to databases.
This can be assured by using the NORM standardization
program. Further details can be found in the Siemens
standard SN 01080.

5.4. Functional and constructional units without own
product number
Functional and constructional units may exist for which it
is inappropriate to assign a product number (e.g. one-off
custom-specific configuration) or not feasible because of
the complexity (e.g. plant, system). Constructional units
of this kind can be described and offered in catalogs, but
it is not possible to define a separate or combined Order
No. For ordering purposes, the MLFBs of the individual
assemblies constituting the requested (or planned)
constructional unit must be specified item by item.
Conventions have been agreed upon to link up the
individual items to permit the ordering, dispatch and
accounting of such constructional units. These are
published in the Siemens Logistics Lexicon (SLL) by
CSP Mch:
Central regulations and information
Electronic business handling - Orders
Identification for supply coherence.









6. PMD

I IA/DT, I BT LV, I IS and Energy (in part) manage their
products in PMD (Product Master Data).
Product master data (product no., product description,
prices, ORG-ID, etc.) are saved in PMD, which are made
available to the user processes such as bids,
configuration procedures, order handling processes and
to the PMI Corporate Service and for preparing the Mall,
CA01 and PMD on PC. The product master data
encompass commercial and technical information.
The PMD responsibilities were regulated in the A&D BV
circular dated 28 Oct. 2005.
The technical responsibility lies with PMD Central,
department I IA CE ITS FT 1.
The process support lies with I IA IT PLM 2
