The ISO week code system defines a week number according to which year the Thursday falls in. So if January 1 is a Thursday, week 1 starts on Dec 29 the year before (Mondaystge first day of the iso week). Under this system it’s common to have a 53 week or 51 week year.

BUT on more European based calendars, and scheduling periods, Monday is the start of the week. Sunday is the end.

My company sometimes uses impossible date codes to signify it wasn’t made on the production line but rather in a prototype shop or with a non production method. For example we might list it being produced during ‘4th’ shift on line ‘X’ when there are only 3 shifts and 2 production lines, A and B.

That being said I’d go with gmporshenut on this one.
