X12 852 Warehouse Product Activity Data

X12 Release 4010

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Product Activity Data Transaction Set (852) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used by a distributor, warehouse, or retailer to advise a trading partner of inventory, sales, and other product activity information. Product activity data enables a trading partner to plan and ship, or propose inventory replenishment quantities, for distribution centers, warehouses or retail outlets.

The receiver of the transaction set will maintain some type of inventory/product movement records for its trading partners to enable replenishment calculations based on data provided by the distributor, warehouse or retailer.

Item Identification

RequiredMax use 1

To specify basic item identification data

Usage notes

This segment is required except when only sending pre-assigned purchase order numbers in the XPO segment.

Effective with the UCS version coinciding with the UCC-published sunset date (2005) for the discontinuation of the use of 12-digit product identifiers, the qualifier UA (U.P.C./EAN Case Code) (2-5-5) in DE235 will be marked as not used and will be replaced with the qualifier UK (U.P.C./EAN Shipping Container Code) (1-2-5-5-1). The corresponding 14-digit product code will be reflected in DE234. This parallels the global transition to the 14-digit and UCC/EAN product identification numbering structure. In preparation for this transition, the UK qualifier and the corresponding 14-digit product code would be communicated in LIN04 and LIN05, respectively.

Example
If either Product/Service ID Qualifier (LIN-24) or Product/Service ID (LIN-25) is present, then the other is required
LIN-02
235
Product/Service ID Qualifier
Required
Identifier (ID)

Code identifying the type/source of the descriptive number used in Product/Service ID (234)

Product Activity Reporting

RequiredMax use 1

To provide activity details concerning product being reported

  • The quantity for the item identified in the LIN segment is required. Quantity is specified either in the ZA segment (ZA02) or in the SDQ segment.
Usage notes

For WINS applications, when ZA01 contains code QI (Quantity in Transit), QR (Quantity Received), or QS (Quantity Sold), ZA06 should contain code SI (Shipper's Identifying Number for Shipment (SID) and ZA07 should contain the shipment number. When ZA01 contains code QT (Adjustment to Inventory Quantity) or PA (Production Quantity Adjustment), ZA06 should contain code BP (Adjustment Control Number) and ZA07 should contain the adjustment control number.

When specifying additional demand quantities, use code QD (Additional Demand Quantity) in ZA01, code 002 (Delivery Requested) in ZA04, and the delivery requested date in ZA05. Send one ZA segment to request a single delivery of additional demand quantities, and multiple ZA segments for incremental deliveries of additional demand quantities.

When ZA01 contains code QD (Additional Demand Quantity), the G95 loop may be used to identify an associated promotion and its start and end dates.

When ZA01 contains code QW (Quantity Withdrawn from Warehouse Inventory) and is used to define the portion of warehouse withdrawals pertaining to a promotion for a specific product, the quantity should be placed in the G95 segment in G95_04.

When ZA01 contains code QT (Adjustment to Inventory Quantity) or PA
(Production Quantity Adjustment), negative quantities should be preceded by a minus sign.

ZA04 is used to specify timing of delivery of product when ZA01 contains code QD (Additional Demand Quantity).

Example
ZA-01
859
Activity Code
Required
Identifier (ID)
