00020063

00020063 is a numeric identifier used in various information systems to uniquely refer to an object, record, or item within a specific database or catalog. Its meaning is context-dependent and is determined by the repository or system that assigns it.

In libraries, archives, and museums, eight-digit codes like 00020063 are often used as accession or catalog numbers assigned by a repository to a physical item or digital object. The actual reference for 00020063 varies by institution and collection, and such codes are not globally unique across organizations.

In commerce and inventory management, the code may function as a stock-keeping unit (SKU) or order number. Manufacturers and retailers assign codes to products to facilitate tracking, pricing, inventory control, and logistics. Again, the specific object identified by 00020063 depends on the system in which it is used.

In data management, codes like 00020063 can serve as primary keys or surrogate keys in relational databases, supporting stable references across datasets and preventing ambiguity when objects share similar attributes.

Because the same sequence can appear in different databases with different referents, 00020063 has no inherent meaning outside its particular system. To identify what it denotes, one must consult the specific repository, catalog, or dataset where the code is used.

Origin and usage: The leading zeros may reflect fixed-width formatting or a coding scheme. Some systems embed information in digit positions, but without context, 00020063 is primarily a numeric token acting as an identifier. See also accession number, SKU, and primary key.
