The Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC) is a unique code used to identify transportation companies. It is typically two to four alpha characters in length and was developed by the National Motor Freight Traffic Association in the 1960s to help the transportation industry computerize data and records.

Burlington Stores are committed to the use of electronic data interchange (EDI) for all transactions with all parties including carrier partners, in keeping with that philosophy we’ve added the SCAC identifier to our transaction set whenever possible to our core system to better enable our carrier partners.

Usage notes

Inbound Status Messages (From Vendor Locations to BCF Warehouse and ‘Direct to Store’ Shipments):

Burlington Stores requires a significant amount of reference information to be transmitted in the AT7 Shipment Status Details segment.

Burlington Stores requires all carriers (inbound and outbound) to send ‘Shipment Status Details’ in the ‘AT701’ segment for any event where the shipment status changes, in other words, when the status of a shipment
changes in the carriers system, a 214 Transportation Carrier Shipment Status Message describing those changes should be sent immediately (in near real time) to Burlington Stores.

Burlington Stores also requires the ‘AT705’ segment to identify the date when the ‘AT701’ status was recorded, for example; if the AT701 = ‘X1’ Arrived at Delivery Location and that the delivery was made today, the AT705 segment would reflect today’s date expressed as CCYYMMDD.

Required AT701 references include OO, X3, AM, AF, J1, AJ, and X1 (where applicable):
OO Paperwork Received - Did not Receive Shipment or Equipment
X3 Arrived at Pick-up Location
AM Loaded on Truck
AF Carrier Departed Pick-up Location with Shipment
J1 Delivered to Connecting Line
AJ Tendered for Delivery
X1 Arrived at Delivery Location

Tracking Freight in ‘near real time’ is paramount at Burlington Stores; ‘Shipment Status Details’ updates reflected by the ‘AT701’ should be sent immediately (in near real time) to Burlington Stores.

“Picked Up” and “Delivered” notifications are particularly important to the invoicing and remittance process at Burlington Stores to ensure that our carriers are remunerated in the most efficient way possible. Burlington Stores is particularly sensitive to our partners and has listed acceptable substitute ‘AT701’ qualifiers to minimize the systemic impact to our partners EDI systems and teams.

Acceptable substitute references for “Picked Up” include AF, BA, CP, X3 and X8:
AF Carrier Departed Pick-up Location with Shipment
BA Connecting Line or Cartage Pick-up
CP Completed Loading at Pick-up Location
X3 Arrived at Pick-up Location
X8 Arrived at Pick-up Location Loading Dock

Acceptable substitute references for “Delivered” include AJ, CD, D1, J1, SI, X1, and X5:
AJ Tendered for Delivery
CD Carrier Departed Delivery Location
D1 Completed Unloading at Delivery Location
J1 Delivered to Connecting Line
S1 Trailer Spotted at Consignee's Location

Usage notes

Burlington Stores requires all carriers (inbound and outbound) to send ‘Shipment Status Details’ in the ‘AT701’ segment for any event where the shipment status changes, in other words, when the status of a shipment changes in the carriers system, a 214 Transportation Carrier Shipment Status Message describing those changes should be sent immediately (in near real time) to Burlington Stores.

Consider the following statement; “if the shipment status changes in your system (Carrier) it must be reflected in our system (Burlington Stores).” As custodians for our trading partners, vendors, buyers, and others, all parties involved in the transportation of goods, acting in a custodial capacity must be able to answer the question of “Where’s my stuff?” in short, the AT701 segment is how we answer that question in near real time.

Burlington Stores uses “Picked Up” and “Delivered” notifications including dates and locations during the billing and invoicing process and considers the ‘AT701’ Shipment Status Code during this process; to ensure that carrier invoices are processed in the most efficient manner, as a best (accounting) practice and to ensure that our partners are paid in a timely manner; as our transportation partner always include the AT7 segment for every change and be sure to include “Picked Up” and “Delivered” notifications.

“Picked Up” notification:

When AT701 Shipment Status Code = ‘AF’ Carrier Departed Pick-up Location with Shipment. ‘BA’ Connecting Line or Cartage Pick-up, ‘CP’ Completed Loading at Pick-up Location, ‘X3’ Arrived at Pick-up Location, or ‘X8’ Arrived at Pick-up Location Loading Dock; Burlington Stores considers the freight as having been ‘Picked up.’

“Delivered” notification:

When AT701 Shipment Status Code = ‘AJ’ Tendered for Delivery, ’CD’ Carrier Departed Delivery Location, ‘D1’ Completed Unloading at Delivery Location, ‘J1’ Delivered to Connecting Line, ‘S1’ Trailer Spotted at Consignee's Location, ‘X1’ Arrived at Delivery Location or ‘X5’ Arrived at Delivery Location Loading Dock, Burlington Stores considers the freight as having been ‘Delivered.’
