Seems like grandparent commenter wants to add classifying codes to items s/he's bought.

For example from that PDF, bagels would have the classification "23490 Bread and other bakers' wares". That's under "23 Grain mill products, starches and starch products; other food products" -> "234 Bakery products".

To be able to see how often one buys grain products, and then bread products, is either funny, or an unnecessary amount of detail.

I've thought of scanning all my grocery store receipts, for example to calculate how many liters of Coca-Cola I've bought in a time period...
