X12 856 Ship Notice/Manifest
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.

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.
- I
- Item
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 Identification
To specify basic item identification data
For country of origin use ISO 3166-1 alpha 2 codes.
For United States use ISO 3166-2 extension codes to indicate the state of origin.
Example codes:
Canada CA
China CN
Mexico MX
US- Illinois US-IL
US- Ohio US-OH
If a product has some from one country and some from another then separate for each country of origin.
Example: LIN1SK099-9999-6*CHCA
Alphanumeric characters assigned for differentiation within a transaction set
- LIN01 is the line item identification
PO101 of 850 PO.
Code identifying the type/source of the descriptive number used in Product/Service ID (234)
- LIN02 through LIN31 provide for fifteen different product/service IDs for each item. For example: Case, Color, Drawing No., U.P.C. No., ISBN No., Model No., or SKU.
- SK
- Stock Keeping Unit (SKU)
Identifying number for a product or service
Format: (NNN-NNNN-N)
Code identifying the type/source of the descriptive number used in Product/Service ID (234)
- EN
- European Article Number (EAN) (2-5-5-1)
- UP
- U.P.C. Consumer Package Code (1-5-5-1)
Identifying number for a product or service
Code identifying the type/source of the descriptive number used in Product/Service ID (234)
- CH
- Country of Origin Code
Item Detail (Shipment)
To specify line-item detail relative to shipment
Example: SN1*24EA
Numeric value of units shipped in manufacturer's shipping units for a line item or transaction set
Date/Time Reference
To specify pertinent dates and times
The DTM segment is MANDATORY for Legacy PO's (850 REFPHC, when REF02 = B) and optional for AOM POs (850 REFPHC, when REF02=A).
Example: DTM01020030501
Summary
Transaction Totals
To transmit a hash total for a specific element in the transaction set
- Number of line items (CTT01) is the accumulation of the number of HL segments.
If used, hash total (CTT02) is the sum of the value of units shipped (SN102) for each SN1 segment.
Example: CTT*5
Transaction Set Trailer
To indicate the end of the transaction set and provide the count of the transmitted segments (including the beginning (ST) and ending (SE) segments)
Total number of segments included in a transaction set including ST and SE segments
Functional Group Trailer
To indicate the end of a functional group and to provide control information
Total number of transaction sets included in the functional group or interchange (transmission) group terminated by the trailer containing this data element
Interchange Control Trailer
To define the end of an interchange of zero or more functional groups and interchange-related control segments
