X12 850 Retail Purchase Order

X12 Release 4010

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Purchase Order Transaction Set (850) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used to provide for customary and established business and industry practice relative to the placement of purchase orders for goods and services. This transaction set should not be used to convey purchase order changes or purchase order acknowledgment information.

If this segment appears in the detail area of the transaction set, the data applies only to that line item. The data specified in the header area is exclusive of the data specified in the detail area; it is not the sum of the data in the detail area, i.e., allowances or charges.

    See Section V (ITD Terms Specification and Formulas) for usage examples.

    In the transitional period for the retail industry, from paper to full automated EDI transactions, there may be a perceived need to send text data with the terms. Clearly the goal is to have the entire retail industry participating in EDI. Therefore, if text data is needed to be sent for terms, ITD12 will contain the free form text. If additional text is needed, additional ITD segments will be used.

    Carrier Details (Routing Sequence/Transit Time)

    OptionalMax use 12

    To specify the carrier and sequence of routing and provide transit time information

    Usage notes

    This segment is used to specify every carrier in the routing sequence or a specific routing sequence that has been previously identified (usually from a routing guide). The segment can also be used to indicate estimated transit time in days. Only use TD501 if needed for clarity; this is not a requirement in most retail applications. When referring to a preestablished routing guide, use code 91 or 92 in TD502, and identify the routing sequence, from the routing guide, in TD503. To identify a specific private parcel service, TD502 will contain code 2, and TD503 will contain the corresponding SCAC. TD510 and TD511 are used to specify transit time.

    Name

    RequiredMax use 1

    To identify a party by type of organization, name, and code

    Usage notes

    This segment is used to identify the retailer's location as it pertains to the order. Every purchase order must contain the identity of the buying party (purchaser). This is accomplished in one of two ways depending on the type of purchase order, Basic or Spreadsheet. BASIC There will be at least one occurrence of the N1 segment to specify the buying party by using code BY in N101. It is assumed that, for a particular buying location, the vendor has the ship to and bill to in their system, therefore, it need not be
    sent. Use the ship to if there are multiple ship-to locations for the buying location. SPREADSHEET The SDQ segment specifies the retailer's buying locations. Therefore, code BY is not used in the N1 segment for the spreadsheet purchase order. It is assumed the vendor has the bill to and ship to for all of the retailer's buying locations. Therefore, this segment is normally not used. If either the bill-to or ship-to locations are to be
    overridden, this segment is used to specify those locations. Only one iteration of each of the bill to or ship to overrides is allowed. CAUTION, this will override every bill to or ship to for every buying location in the SDQ segment(s). For example, when the customer is instructing the supplier to package goods for cross-docking, one iteration of the N1 segment, with N101 containing code ST, may be used to indicate the ship-to location. The ship-to location overrides the ship-to locations that are normally associated with the buying parties identified in the SDQ segment(s).

    N103 and N104 are required except when N101 contains code CT, MA or OB.

    When the ship to is the end consumer (customer of retailer), N103 and N104 are not
    required.;

    In some EDI implementations, it may be necessary to identify the sender and/or receiver of the transaction set within each transaction set. To identify the sender of the transaction set, N101 will contain code FR, N103 will contain code 93, and N104 will contain the actual identification number. To identify the receiver of the transaction set, N101 will contain code TO, N103 will contain code 94, and N104 will contain the actual identification number. These four codes may be used only in the combination listed above and may be used only to identify the sender and/or receiver of the transaction set.

    • PO102 is required.
    Usage notes

    The multi-SKU case pack is used by retailers to order cases packed with specific items, each with a specific quantity. This is similar to the dynamic assortment, however, the unit of measurement code in PO103 is different for each use. For dynamic assortments, PO103 will contain code AS. This identifies the item listed in the Product/Service IDs as an assortment and the contents of the assortment are listed in subsequent SLN segments. For assortments, at least one occurrence of the Product/Service ID Qualifier and the Product/Service ID are required to identify the assortment. This may be a U.P.C., a vendor assigned number, or a retailer assigned number. There is no implication of packaging for assortments; this is part of the trading partners' business practices. Assortments are primarily used as an ordering tool. For the multi-SKU case pack, PO103
    will contain code CA, and there is no requirement to send a Product/Service ID in the PO1 segment. The use of code CA in PO103, and the presence of the SLN segments, informs the receiver to pack the cases with the SKUs and quantities in the SLN segments. The quantity in PO102 is the number of cases being ordered. Each SLN segment, that follows the PO1 segment, lists the Product ID, e.g., U.P.C., and the quantity of the SKU
    that is to be in the case. The total units in each case is the sum of the quantities in the SLN segment.

    The codes listed for PO106 apply to every occurrence of Data Element 235 in the PO1 segment.

    See Section III for complete U.P.C. and EAN code definitions.

    Example: PO100000124EA1.77WEUP*028448616263~
