X12 856 Ship Notice/Manifest (4010DQSA)
This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Ship Notice/Manifest Transaction Set (856) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used to list the contents of a shipment of goods as well as additional information relating to the shipment, such as order information, product description, physical characteristics, type of packaging, marking, carrier information, and configuration of goods within the transportation equipment. The transaction set enables the sender to describe the contents and configuration of a shipment in various levels of detail and provides an ordered flexibility to convey information.
The sender of this transaction is the organization responsible for detailing and communicating the contents of a shipment, or shipments, to one or more receivers of the transaction set. The receiver of this transaction set can be any organization having an interest in the contents of a shipment or information about the contents of a shipment.

- When MAN01 contains code "UC" (U.P.C. Shipping Container Code) and MAN05/MAN06 contain a range of ID numbers, MAN03 is not used. The reason for this is that the U.P.C. Shipping Container code is the same on every carton that is represented in the range in MAN05/MAN06.
If MAN01 is "GM" then MAN02 must be 20 digits and unique, but need not be sequential. If MAN01 is "UC" then MAN02 must be 12 or 14 digits.

This HL loop is used to describe a vendor master shipping carton.
Hierarchical Level
To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments
- The HL segment is the only mandatory segment within the HL loop, and by itself, the HL segment has no meaning.
A unique number assigned by the sender to identify a particular data segment in a hierarchical structure
- HL01 shall contain a unique alphanumeric number for each occurrence of the HL segment in the transaction set. For example, HL01 could be used to indicate the number of occurrences of the HL segment, in which case the value of HL01 would be "1" for the initial HL segment and would be incremented by one in each subsequent HL segment within the transaction.
Identification number of the next higher hierarchical data segment that the data segment being described is subordinate to
- HL02 identifies the hierarchical ID number of the HL segment to which the current HL segment is subordinate.
Code defining the characteristic of a level in a hierarchical structure
- HL03 indicates the context of the series of segments following the current HL segment up to the next occurrence of an HL segment in the transaction. For example, HL03 is used to indicate that subsequent segments in the HL loop form a logical grouping of data referring to shipment, order, or item-level information.
- P
- Pack
Code indicating if there are hierarchical child data segments subordinate to the level being described
- HL04 indicates whether or not there are subordinate (or child) HL segments related to the current HL segment.
- 0
- No Subordinate HL Segment in This Hierarchical Structure.
Item Physical Details

- LB
- Pound
Largest horizontal dimension of an object measured when the object is in the upright position
Shorter measurement of the two horizontal dimensions measured with the object in the upright position
Vertical dimension of an object measured when the object is in the upright position
Code specifying the units in which a value is being expressed, or manner in which a measurement has been taken
- PO413 defines the unit of measure for PO410, PO411, and PO412.

Marks and Numbers
To indicate identifying marks and numbers for shipping containers
MAN01 & MAN02 must comply to the standards established by the Uniform Code Council (UCC). We must receive this segment in order to receive merchandise by scanning.
Code specifying the application or source of Marks and Numbers (87)
- MAN01/MAN02 and MAN04/MAN05 may be used to identify two different marks and numbers assigned to the same physical container.
- When MAN01 contains code "UC" (U.P.C. Shipping Container Code) and MAN05/MAN06 contain a range of ID numbers, MAN03 is not used. The reason for this is that the U.P.C. Shipping Container code is the same on every carton that is represented in the range in MAN05/MAN06.
If MAN01 is "GM" then MAN02 must be 20 digits and unique, but need not be sequential. If MAN01 is "UC" then MAN02 must be 12 or 14 digits.
- GM
- SSCC-18 and Application Identifier
- UC
- U.P.C. Shipping Container Code
Marks and numbers used to identify a shipment or parts of a shipment
- When both MAN02 and MAN03 are used, MAN02 is the starting number of a sequential range and MAN03 is the ending number of that range.
