  Correct the Assignment: If you find that the national code/type is already assigned to another GTIN, you will need to either:
  
  Change the national code/type for the new GTIN you are trying to create.
  Reassign the existing GTIN to the correct material if it was assigned incorrectly.
  
  
  Data Validation: Ensure that the data being entered is correct and does not conflict with existing entries. Validate the national code and type against the GTINs in the system.
