07 ISNI-based discount group code ISNI-based discount group scheme devised initially by the German IG ProduktMetadaten, in a format comprised of the supplier’s 16-digit ISNI, followed by a hyphen and one to three alphanumeric characters – normally digits – chosen by the supplier. These characters are the index to a discount percentage in a table shared in advance by the supplier with individual customers. In this way, a supplier may maintain individual product-specific discount arrangements with each customer. Only for use in ONIX 3.0 or later 47
