toote identifikaator, tavaliselt tärkkujul,

st müügi- ja/või tingimustikueksemplarile

identification, usually alphanumeric, of a particular product that allows it to be tracked for inventory and software entitlement purposes
Note 1. The term is traditionally associated with physical goods. In the sense of licenses it refers to a unique identifier, sometimes also called “part number”.
Note 2. The term is typically associated with unique products for sales purposes, such as software entitlements. It may not correspond uniquely to specific software products, but may instead represent packages of software, and/or specific terms and conditions related to software products, such as whether it relates to a full product, upgrade product, or maintenance on an existing product.
