  AHMF: Ean's Story

The answer to the 2-digit limitation given by EAN International is that it is the application software's responsibility to figure out that "080525" means "25th May 2008" rather than "25th May 1908".
The solution is a technique called "windowing" where any two digit number between 51 and 99 is considered proceeded by "19" while any number between 00 and 50 is considered proceeded by "20".

Changing from the 12-digit UPC code to a 13-digit EAN code could have a ripple affect on distributors and trading-partners, as they must transfer all of their historical product information and databases from UPC to EAN.
To make EAN number's fit the first digits that are usually zero and the last digit that is the check digit is dropped.
Since many distributors are legacy format based (using the 11-digit UPC number) and if their manufacturer trading partner is EAN based the data may not be compatible with on line ordering systems/marketplaces and it may cause purchase order perturbations if the data elements are not exactly the same (11 digit vs. 13 EAN digit).
