Common EDI Transaction Codes


850

The Purchase Order, or EDI 850, is sent from a buyer to a vendor to place an order.


860

The Purchase Order Change Request, or EDI 860, is sent from a buyer to a vendor to make corrections to a previously submitted order. This transaction is not designed to be exported. It is meant to be viewed and then changes would be made manually to the outgoing transactions based on the update.

997

The Functional Acknowledgement, or EDI 997, is an electronic receipt, and is generated automatically when a transaction is received.


855

The Purchase Order Acknowledgement, or EDI 855, is exactly what it sounds like: it is used to acknowledge that a Purchase Order was received. Unlike the 997, the 855 is usually created by Turnaround.


865

The Purchase Order Change Request/Acknowledgement, or EDI 865, can be sent in response to a Purchase Order Change Request (860) to either accept or reject the requested changes.


856

An 856, or Advance Shipment Notice, is also referred to as an ASN or Ship Notice/Manifest. The purpose of an ASN is to alert a trading partner or buyer that a shipment is on its way.

810

The EDI 810 is an electronic version of the paper-based invoice document, typically sent in response to an EDI 850 Purchase Order as a request for payment. The Invoice can be created by Turnaround. If you're an integrated customer and utilize an ERP system, you may be able to import the Invoice.

Refer to these articles: The Turnaround Function and How to Import.


875

The Grocery Product Purchase Order, or EDI 875, is the electronic form of a paper PO, used specifically by grocery wholesalers and retailers for the placement of orders for finished goods from their suppliers.


880

The Grocery Product Invoice, or EDI 880, is sent to a grocery supplier to a buyer, typically in response to an EDI 875 document. The invoice may include details like total amount due, an itemized list of goods and/services and their agreed upon pricing, and payment terms. This transaction can be created by Turnaround.

Refer to this article: The Turnaround Function.


846

The EDI 846, or Inventory Advice, is used to communicate product availability and status.

832

The EDI 832, or Price Sales Catalog, is used to request or provide the prices of items, replacing the paper catalog. It's used to provide detailed product information.


824

The EDI 824, or Application Advice, is a transaction used by some Trading Partners to notify the sender if a previous transaction was accepted, rejected, or contains errors.


852

The EDI 852, or Product Activity Data, provides product-movement related information, such as inventory, SKU and sales information.

The EDI 940, or Warehouse Shipping Order, is sent by sellers/suppliers to third-party logistics providers (3PLs), and is a formal request for shipment of goods from a remote warehouse to a buyer's location.


945
