Functional Group IM

X12I Transportation Subcommittee

This standard provides the format and establishes the data contents of the Motor Carrier Freight Details and Invoice Transaction Set within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. This transaction set is used to provide detail information for charges for services rendered by a motor carrier. It is used both as a motor carrier invoice to request payment or as details pertaining to motor freight shipment(s) charges.

What is an EDI 210?

An EDI 210 Motor Carrier Freight Details and Invoice communicates invoicing details for an EDI 204 Motor Carrier Load Tender from a carrier to a freight broker. It contains the total invoicing cost for the shipment (L3 segment), any accessorial charges related to the shipment per stop (L1 segment) and proof of delivery data (POD segment).

How is an EDI 210 used?

The EDI 210 is used to close the loop on a shipment that was created via an EDI 204 Motor Carrier Load Tender.
